Jaguars expect lineman Joeckel to play at Bengals

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — The Jacksonville Jaguars expect to have left tackle Luke Joeckel available for Sunday’s game at Cincinnati.

Joeckel missed the second half of last week’s loss to Miami with a concussion.

The second-year player did not practice Wednesday, but got in limited work Thursday and was full go Friday. He was listed as probable on Friday’s injury report.

Jaguars coach Gus Bradley says he “would be shocked” if Joeckel didn’t play against the Bengals. Joeckel went through the NFL’s concussion protocol this week and hasn’t had any symptoms since Tuesday.

Joeckel says he is “ready to play. I missed out on Wednesday’s practice, but I’ve been involved with all the meetings, so I’m ready to go.”
