Jacksonville, FL (Sports Network) - Jacksonville Jaguars coach Mike Mularkey
announced on Monday that running back Maurice Jones-Drew will miss next
Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers.
Mularkey said that Jones-Drew hurt his left foot on the first play of the game
in the Jaguars' 26-23 overtime loss to the Oakland Raiders on Sunday. He
carried the ball two times before exiting.
Jones-Drew was seen on the sideline in a walking boot with crutches. The UCLA
product has 86 carries for 414 yards and a touchdown in six games this season.
Mularkey said on Monday that he has no further timeline for Jones-Drew. Rashad
Jennings replaced him on Sunday and carried the ball 21 times for 44
yards and a score.
Quarterback Blaine Gabbert also left Sunday's loss with a left shoulder
injury, but Mularkey said "there's a good chance (Gabbert will) be able to
play this week."
