The Jacksonville Jaguars released their list of inactives for Week 9’s game against the Houston Texans, which consisted of seven players. Of course, the most notable was quarterback Gardner Minshew II (thumb), but there were others who surfaced on the list for injury reasons like tailback Devine Ozigbo and linebacker Dakota Allen.

Like Minshew, Allen (ankle) and Ozigbo (hamstring) were ruled out Friday on the final injury report. Both players sustained (or re-aggravated) their respective injuries Week 7 against the Los Angeles Chargers and exited the game early without returning.
One of the more interesting tidbits about Week 9’s list of inactives is that cornerbacks Luq Barcoo and Josiah Scott both surfaced on it again. The Jags elected to call up cornerback Josh Nurse from the practice squad instead of making either rookie active, which is puzzling after the solid training camp performances they had.
The last notable to surface on the inactives list was Aaron Lynch, who came out of retirement two weeks ago. With that being the case, it isn’t shocking that the veteran hasn’t been activated yet as the Jags are likely looking to get him in game day shape.
