Surgery may be on the horizon for Trevor Lawrence, but the Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback is expected to play Sunday against the Houston Texans, head coach Doug Pederson said Friday.
Lawrence, who is listed as questionable, has missed the past two Jaguars games after suffering a sprained left shoulder Nov. 3 against the Philadelphia Eagles. However, after returning to practice, he was expected to return to the field this week.
“I think so [the sprained AC joint] Lawrence said Wednesday “[Surgery is] Definitely something I’m considering and not off the table. It’s something that we’re just going to have [approach] Really day by day, week by week.
“He’s had a good week. I’d say right now, yes, he’s going to play,” Pederson said.
Brock Purdy is questionable vs. Bills
After missing the San Francisco 49ers’ loss to the Green Bay Packers and being limited in practice this week, quarterback Brock Purdy was listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game against the Buffalo Bills.
“A lot can happen between now and then,” head coach Kyle Shanahan said Friday. “But right now he’s playing. He’s doing well. Had a good day.”
Purdy is dealing with a right shoulder injury and has yet to practice since suffering the injury Nov. 17 against the Seattle Seahawks.
“Anytime you go through an injury and stuff like that you want to know what’s going on in your body and how long something might be or whether something is serious or not, whether you’re healthy or not,” Purdy said. “All these things definitely went through my mind. But happy that everything was clear in the MRI and knowing that we had a plan to be ready for this week and I’m ready to go now.”
Left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) and rusher Nick Bosa (hip/oblique), who also haven’t played in Week 12, are out for the Bills game.
JK Dobbins has been placed on IR with a sprained knee
Jake Dobbins suffered a knee sprain in Monday night’s loss to the Baltimore Ravens, and now the injury will force him to miss time for the Los Angeles Chargers.
On Saturday, the Chargers announced that Dobbins had been placed on injured reserve, ruling him out for at least the next four games.
Dobbins, who missed the 2021 season with a torn ACL and then suffered a torn Achilles in Week 1 last season, was having a bounce-back year with 766 rushing yards and eight touchdowns through 11 games for the 7-4 Chargers.
Here’s the rest of the injury report for Week 13. (Players will be added as teams release their reports.)
