Packers lose RB/KR Tyler Ervin to rib injury vs. Jaguars

The Green Bay Packers won’t have running back and returner Tyler Ervin for the rest of the afternoon against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Ervin, who left the game with a rib injury in the second quarter, was ruled out to start the second half.

Ervin was injured at the end of a 3-yard catch in the second quarter. A hit from Jaguars linebacker Myles Jack might have caused the issue. He was able to exit the field and later walk to the locker room.

Ervin is the team’s primary returner, and he also serves as the fly motion man in the Packers offense. The Packers are also without Darrius Shepherd, who had been returning punts and kicks while Ervin dealt with a wrist injury.

Cornerback Josh Jackson handled the first punt return of the second half.

Ervin caught one pass for three yards, carried once for no gain and returned one kick for five yards in the first half.
