    "Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Kassim Osgood had to leap out a second-floor window late Monday to escape a gun-wielding man who had attacked him and a 19-year-old woman he was visiting in a home in the 2000 block of Fort Caroline Road.

    By the time it was over, the armed intruder traded gunfire with the woman after sticking a gun to her head, saying, "What did that football player say to his girlfriend, 'it's a good day to die,'" misquoting ex-Florida Gator Chris Rainey's recent text message to a former girlfriend after an arrest, according to a Sheriff's Office report.

    Osgood, a Pro Bowl special teams player in his first season with the Jaguars, had some minor bruises from his escape and being pistol-whipped, the report said. He declined to comment Wednesday.

    "He's fine," coach Jack Del Rio said. "I'm aware of it. I really can't comment on that whole deal. He's doing OK."

    Julian Armond Bartletto, 20, of the 10500 block of Running Oak Court has been arrested on charges of aggravated battery, false imprisonment, armed robbery, burglary and violation of an injunction, police said. He was booked into the Duval County jail ineligible for bond, according to jail records.

    Mackenzie Rae Putnal and Osgood, 30, were watching television in a second-floor game room just before 11:15 p.m. when a man walked in with his face covered with a plastic bag and pointed a gun at them. Exclaiming that "I can't believe you're with that guy," he pulled Putnal around the room by her hair and hit her with gun and fists before hitting Osgood in the head with the weapon too, the arrest report said.

    The gunman took the woman's cell phone and tackled her when she tried to flee, holding the gun to her head as well as Osgood's and also hitting her dog several times. When he ordered the couple to sit on the floor, Putnal escaped down a hall and leaped over the balcony to the floor below, the report said."
