Jacksonville Jaguars player notes for Dec 4th, 2018


*Myles Jack – Noteworthy
LB Myles Jack had not recorded more than three tackles in any of his last three games but came through with 10 tackles and recovered a fumble in the Indianapolis game.

*Yannick Ngakoue – Noteworthy
DE Yannick Ngakoue recorded his co-team-leading seventh sack of the season when he dropped Colts QB Andrew Luck for a 7-yard loss at midfield in the second quarter. Ngakoue had a strip-sack in the first quarter but a holding penalty on the Jaguars negated Ngakoue’s effort.

Abry Jones – Noteworthy – Injury
DT Abry Jones was seen in the locker room Monday in a walking boot. Head coach Doug Marrone called it “a contusion, nothing structurally damaged.”

D.J. Hayden – Noteworthy
CB D.J. Hayden had another strong game with four tackles, two passes broken up and the Jaguars only interception on Andrew Luck. Hayden now has 18 tackles in his last three games after missing six games earlier in the season with a toe injury.

Dawuane Smoot – Noteworthy
DE Dawuane Smoot, who was inactive for each of the first eight games this season, saw his most action of the season against Indianapolis. He was credited with two tackles and two quarterback hits.

Jalen Ramsey – Noteworthy
CB Jalen Ramsey had six tackles and two pass break-ups against the Colts. His biggest tackle came on the last play of the game when he knocked Colts’ TE Erik Swoope backwards which allowed the clock to keep running and ended the game without the Colts getting off another play.

Jermey Parnell – Noteworthy – Injury
OT Jermey Parnell missed a series on Sunday with a foot injury but was back in the lineup when the Jaguars started their next drive. Omameh moved to tackle to replace Parnell with Chris Reed taking over at the left guard spot while Parnell was out.

RB Leonard Fournette was back in the locker room Monday, ready to resume practicing with the Jaguars. Fournette served a one-game suspension last week issued by the NFL office for an incident in the Buffalo game the previous week. Fournette was scheduled to meet with the media on Monday but left the locker room without talking.

Leonard Fournette – Important – Transaction
RB Leonard Fournette (Jaguars) was reinstated from reserve/suspended by the NFL Monday (Dec. 3). He received a roster exemption that expires Tuesday.
