Jaguars WR Jakobi Meyers deals with hand injury, status uncertain
Summary

Jakobi Meyers, the Jaguars' wide receiver, is managing a hand injury sustained during practice. He was seen on the sideline with a brace on his right hand during Friday's preseason game. Head coach Liam Coen confirmed Meyers jammed his hand but did not specify if he would miss upcoming practices. The injury occurred as Meyers left the final drive of Wednesday's joint practice. His participation in next week's joint practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is still undetermined, with Coen indicating they will assess his condition by Tuesday. Meyers's role has been significant for the team's offense since his mid-season acquisition last year.
