Jeff Okudah, Jonah Jackson likely to return from injury against Jaguars, per HC Dan Campbell
Published:
Jeff Okudah and Jonah Jackson missed the Detroit Lions’ last game against the Buffalo Bills due to brain injuries. It looks like all signs are pointing at them playing against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Mlive’s Kyle Meinke.
Lions HC Dan Campbell confirmed how Okudah and Jackson have been doing at practice recently. Okudah and Jackson were full participants at Thursday’s practice and as long as there are no other symptoms they should play on Sunday.
“(Okudah and Jackson) went full-go yesterday,” head coach Dan Campbell said before practice on Friday. “They’re full-go today. As long as there’s no symptoms or anything, they’re good. They’re passed protocol. So, I anticipate them playing.”
Detroit is 4-7 through the eleven games its played so far. Having players like Okudah and Jackson back will definitely help its playoff push. Okudah and Jackson have played in a combined 17 games this season.
Detroit plays Jacksonville at home Sunday at 1 p.m. ET on FOX.
