The Jacksonville Jaguars have named their group of five inactive players for Week 13’s game against Los Angeles, and running back James Robinson wasn’t among them. However, one surprise that was on the list was starting defensive lineman DaVon Hamilton.
Hamilton wasn’t in the status column of the final injury report, but didn’t practice on Wednesday and Thursday with a knee injury. He was also limited Friday and it appears he suffered a setback prior to the game.
The Jags activated defensive tackle Jay Tufele to the active roster on Saturday, who had previously been designated to return from the injured reserve with a hand injury. It appears the reason for his activation was due to Hamilton’s situation and the team could now potentially give him snaps at nose tackle, or have him play defensive end while Malcom Brown plays nose tackle.
Of course, the other expected notable on the inactives list was cornerback Shaquill Griffin (concussion), who was ruled OUT Friday. While he was limited on Friday when the final report came out, he didn’t participate in the previous two practices or the practice sessions for last week.
As for the Rams, they didn’t have running back Darrell Henderson or receiver Odell Beckham listed among their inactive players after both were ruled questionable on Friday. However, their full list of inactive is as follows:
Rams inactives: QB Bryce Perkins. CB David Long, S JuJu Hughes, OLB Chris Garrett, OL Alaric Jackson and OL Tremayne Anchrum
