Not long after Jacksonville Jaguars coach Doug Pederson said that Zay Jones was a “long shot” to play Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers, the wide receiver’s absence was made official in the final injury report.
Jones is the only player who was ruled out by the Jaguars with another four listed as questionable.

“Tyson [Campbell] is doing well, he had a good week of practice, him and [Andre] Cisco are really good, Walker [Little] is really good, so they should be fine,” Pederson said during his Friday press conference.
Daniel Thomas is primarily a special teamer and the newly acquired Ezra Cleveland is expected to be a backup, so it wouldn’t be devastating if the Jaguars were without either or both of those players.
The bigger question mark Sunday is the availability of San Francisco 49ers offensive tackle Trent Williams and defensive tackle Javon Hargrave who were both listed as questionable Friday.

Williams missed the 49ers’ last two games due to his ankle injury and only returned to practice Thursday. Hargrave wasn’t on the report at all Wednesday, but popped up Thursday with a knee issue.
