- Jaguars vs. Titans Week 14 inactives: Anton Harrison a surprise inactive due to illness
The Jacksonville Jaguars (2-10) will be without quarterback Trevor Lawrence for the remainder of the season. Today's game against the Tennessee Titans (3-9) will be the third the quarterback has missed this season.
Lawrence was placed on injured reserve Wednesday after sustaining a concussion because of a violent hit by Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair last Sunday. Lawrence is also dealing with a shoulder injury which head coach Doug Pederson noted on Friday was the primary reason for Lawrence's IR designation.

Lawrence finished his fourth season in the pros after playing 10 games. He completed 60.6% of his passes for 2,045 yards, 11 touchdowns and seven interceptions.

Lawrence isn't the only Jaguars player that's banged up, however. Cornerback Tyson Campbell (quad), punter Logan Cooke (left knee), long snapper Ross Matiscik (hamstring) and linebacker Yasir Abdullah (hamstring) entered the Week 14 matchup as questionable to play.
Pederson did not lean one way or the other when asked if the quartet could suit up on Friday.

A late surprise: The Jaguars' starting right tackle, Anton Harrison, was deemed inactive due to illness, according to the team.
Harrison was not on the injury report this week and did travel with the team to Tennessee before coming down with an undisclosed illness. Jacksonville has backups Cole Van Lanen , rookie Javon Foster and swing tackle/guard Blake Hance to use at the spot.
Harrison is missing the first game of his career after being drafted in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
Campbell has dealt with multiple injuries this season. His first injury came during the team's Week 1 contest against the Miami Dolphins . Campbell sustained a hamstring injury that landed him on IR. He was activated several weeks later during the team's two-week stint in London, suiting up in Week 7 against the New England Patriots .

Campbell hasn't missed a game since despite a shoulder injury and looks primed to play against Tennessee today after being listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's contest.
The Jaguars signed a couple of specialists to their practice squad as insurance for Cooke and Matiscik. Both players are good to go against Tennessee, however. Neither P Matt Haack nor LS Tucker Addington were elevated ahead of Sunday's game.
