With their bye week occurring last week, the Jacksonville Jaguars will be very close to 100% as they travel to Indianapolis to take on the Colts. However, there was one player who surfaced on the injury report and that was tight end Seth DeValve, who was ruled doubtful with an oblique injury.

DeValve was added to the injury report Thursday with safety Ronnie Harrison (eye) and was listed as limited upon his initial placement on the list.
Though it’s just one injury, DeValve’s situation could affect the Jags in a big way because it leaves them with just two tight ends in Josh Oliver and Ben Koyack. Before having their current trio, the Jags lost both James O’Shaughnessy (ACL tear) and Geoff Swaim (ankle/concussion), who were placed on injured reserve.
The Jags have rookie tight end Charles Jones on their practice squad who they could promote to the main roster. They also could sign a free-agent if they don’t feel comfortable with going into Sunday’s game with two tight ends.
On the positive side, linebackers Quincy Williams and Leon Jacobs, offensive linemen Brandon Linder and Cam Robinson, receiver Dede Westbrook, nickelback D.J. Hayden, and defensive lineman Calais Campbell will all play after being listed on Thursday’s report.
