WR D.J. Chark ruled out vs. Raiders on Week 15’s final injury report

The Jags will be without one player Sunday: receiver DJ Chark (ankle). Per Doug Marrone he’ll remain home and continue to recover.

The Jacksonville Jaguars will be without just one player Sunday against the Oakland Raiders, but it will be one of their top stars. Receiver DJ Chark Jr. was ruled out and will remain in Jacksonville to continue his recovery from the ankle injury he sustained against the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Jags were already viewed as 6.5-point underdogs earlier in the week and not having their top receiver, and one who is one of the best in football, will make things harder. Add in the fact that the Jags will be in a very hostile environment due to the Raiders playing in their last game at RingCentral Coliseum (a.k.a. Oakland Coliseum), and most fans will have an even harder time believing in the Jags Week 15.

The Raiders’ final injury report had both offensive lineman Trent Brown and cornerback Daryl Worley ruled as questionable for Sunday’s game.

DJ Chark week-to-week with ankle injury, Ronnie Harrison ready to return from concussion

DJ Chark Jr. will be week-to-week after injuring his ankle Sunday against the Chargers.

As expected, Jacksonville Jaguars safety Ronnie Harrison will be good to take the field for Week 15’s game against the Oakland Raiders after missing the team’s last two games. Doug Marrone told the media that the second-year safety cleared the concussion protocol in Monday’s conference call, which is a big positive as the Jags’ defense struggled in the backfield Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Marrone also provided an update on receiver DJ Chark, who was seen leaving the locker room in a boot and on a scooter after sustaining an injury Sunday against the Chargers.

Harrison sustained his injury in the first quarter of the Jags’ Week 12’s game against the Tennessee Titans after making a tackle on tight end MyCole Pruitt. As a result of the injury, the Jags thrusted Andrew Wingard into Harrison’s role, giving the undrafted rookie two starts.

Chark, on the other hand, sustained his injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s loss to the Chargers while defensive back Jaylen Watkins was making a tackle on him. In the process of trying to get extra yardage and fight through the tackle, Chark seemingly injured his ankle and was helped to the locker room after being ruled questionable on the night.
