Jaguars cornerback Tyson Campbell continues to trend toward a return to action in Week 7 against the Patriots, Jacksonville head coach Doug Pederson shared on Friday.
Campbell, who the Jaguars placed on injured reserve Sept. 12 after hurting his hamstring in Week 1 against Miami, had his 21-day practice window opened last Wednesday.
Pederson revealed at the time that Campbell was “leaning” toward being activated from the injured reserve in Week 7. Six practices later, he remains on that trajectory.
“Tyson looks good, had a good week of preparation,” Pederson said Friday. “And again, just barring any setbacks, he should be cleared and good for the game. We’ll make that decision.”
Pederson added that such a decision would be made officially on Saturday.
Campbell recorded three tackles including one for loss in Week 1, his first game after signing a four-year, $76.5 million contract extension with Jacksonville in July.
Since being drafted No. 33 overall in the second round by the Jaguars in 2021, Campbell has logged 207 tackles with seven for loss, six interceptions, 30 defended passes and two forced fumbles in 44 games.
Jacksonville vs. New England will kick off Sunday at 9:30 a.m. ET / 2:30 p.m. BST, at Wembley Stadium in London.
