Before the Jacksonville Jaguars take on the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday Night Football, four players are listed as questionable. The following players were listed as questionable: tight ends Luke Farrell (toe) and Brenton Strange (foot), running back Travis Etienne (ribs), and cornerback Tyson Campbell (hamstring). Campbell missed Weeks 7 and 8 after initially sustaining a hamstring injury in Week 6. Following the Jaguars’ bye week in Week 10, Campbell made a comeback, but he left after re-injuring the same hamstring.
Despite missing the previous two weeks, Campbell looks to have a chance to play against Tee Higgins and Ja’Marr Chase in Week 13. Yes, let’s see. He’s feeling well all week, so he’ll get another day. Doug Pederson, the head coach of the Jaguars, stated on Saturday, “I don’t want to push him too hard, but he’s doing well. We’ll get another good day in today and make that determination this weekend.” Out of the four players who did not practice on Saturday, Strange was the only one who sustained a foot injury during Friday’s practice.
Yes, it happened just during our private meeting. He simply landed incorrectly on his foot; the ball made no contact. He feels better today after receiving treatment. We’ll see where he is at because he has a lot of time between now and Monday night, Pederson said. Strange, the No. 61 overall selection in April, has played 34% of the snaps in all 11 games this season and has caught four passes for 34 yards and a touchdown. Starting tight end Evan Engram is the only player at the position who is healthy, with two backup tight ends listed on the injury report. Josh Pederson, a tight end on the practice squad and the son of head coach Doug Pederson, is the only other tight end on the team.
Ben Baby reports that coach Zac Taylor of the Cincinnati Bengals has stated that quarterback Jake Browning, who
has been sidelined with a wrist injury all week, will be available to play on Monday against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Throughout the week, Browning has participated fully in practice despite the injury. He nearly pulled off a victory against the Pittsburgh Steelers last week, and he will now get his second start of the season. Even though they lost 16–10 in the end, it showed that they could compete with an AFC contender. If Browning and the Bengals are to have any chance of making the playoffs or winning more games, they will still need to score more points offensively.
