Jacksonville Jaguars rookie linebacker Chad Muma joined second-year quarterback Trevor Lawrence in sitting out practice Wednesday due to injuries suffered in a Week 13 loss against the Detroit Lions.
Lawrence not practicing isn’t a surprise as Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said earlier in the day that he wouldn’t due to a toe sprain. Lawrence was spotted wearing a protective shoe Tuesday, but told reporters Wednesday that he intends to play against the Tennessee Titans.
Muma, 23, is dealing with an ankle injury that he suffered during a 1.5-sack and 11-tackle performance against the Lions. On Monday, Pederson said that Muma will be day-to-day this week.

The other two players on the report — safety Andre Cisco and wide receiver Zay Jones — were both questionable to play Sunday. Cisco was declared inactive before kickoff and Jones had his worst game with the Jaguars, dropping several passes in the first half against the Lions.
Tennessee listed 13 players on its Wednesday injury report with six sitting out and seven limited.
