The Jacksonville Jaguars’ injury report is looking a lot smaller with the end of the regular season just days away and the team is getting close to having arguably its two most important offensive players back on the field.
Quarterback Trevor Lawrence and wide receivers Christian Kirk and Zay Jones were all limited in the team’s Wednesday practice ahead of a Week 18 game against the Tennessee Titans.

Lawrence, 24, is working to come back from a shoulder sprain he suffered in the team’s Week 16 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After missing all three practices last week, the quarterback was forced to miss the first game of his NFL career.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Jaguars activated the 21-day practice window for Kirk, who is still technically on injured reserve after suffering a core muscle injury in December. The receiver revealed after his first practice in about a month that he had been dealing with a partial tear since October.
#Jaguars WR Christian Kirk said that he's been playing with a tear in his right abdominal since Week 6 before ultimately tearing his left adductor off the bone.

The Jaguars were without Jones in Weeks 16 and 17 due to a hamstring injury.
For the Titans, it was a much lengthier injury report ahead of the regular season finale.

Will Levis, a second-round rookie, has started nine games for the Titans this season, but exited the team’s Week 17 game with a foot injury. If he can’t play Sunday, the Titans would turn to Ryan Tannehill to start in what may be his last game with the team.
