JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — The Jacksonville Jaguars will be without starting outside linebacker Daryl Smith for the season opener at Minnesota.
Coach Mike Mularkey ruled Smith out Friday, saying he had a setback with his groin injury earlier in the week.
The Jaguars also likely will be without cornerback Derek Cox. He is doubtful for Sunday’s game.
Receiver Justin Blackmon (ankle) and guard Uche Nwaneri (ankle) practiced for the second consecutive day and are probable.
