JACKSONVILLE, FLA. (AP) - Jacksonville Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew has missed a third consecutive day of practice, casting doubt about his availability against Washington.
Jones-Drew was listed at doubtful on Friday’s injury report, but coach Jack Del Rio declined to reveal whether he expects his star to try to play against the Redskins.
Del Rio says the Jaguars are “going to monitor his condition throughout the weekend.”
Jones-Drew has dealt with knee problems most of the season, but his right one really became problematic after his sixth consecutive 100-yard game, Dec. 12 against Oakland. He missed two days of practice last week, and Indianapolis held him to 46 yards on the ground.
He sat out practice Wednesday, Thursday and Friday this week.
