NFL Injury Tracker Week 10: Trevor Lawrence Doubtful, Christian McCaffrey Expected to Return, CeeDee Lamb ‘Getting Right’

On By Littum

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence appears to be ruled out for the team’s game on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings.

Head coach Doug Pederson said Lawrence was “tending not to play.” If so, Mac Jones would be up and running.

We don’t know much about how Lawrence injured his shoulder or what’s wrong with it. He was all over the place against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 9, going 16-of-31 for 169 yards and two interceptions. He had two touchdowns, but both were rushing TDs, so neither significantly involved his throwing shoulder.

The Jaguars officially ruled Lawrence “questionable” on the injury report released Friday. When asked about his QB Wednesday, Pederson said said Lawrence was “sore” and would be limited in practice.

According to NFL Network’s Ian RapoportLawrence is reportedly weighing his treatment options for his shoulder, and surgery is on the table. Rapoport said the X that while no surgery is planned now, it is one of the options Lawrence is considering.

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said Friday that Christian McCaffrey is “good to go” for Sunday. McCaffrey is expected to make his season debut this week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after what Shanahan called a “fantastic” performance in practice the past two days.

The 49ers have listed him as “questionable” for Sunday, but Shanahan has repeatedly said McCaffrey should be ready to play if everything goes right.

McCaffrey has been out all season with Achilles tendinitis and calf tightness, with issues first coming when he was a late scratch in Week 1. He was soon placed on injured reserve, with a hazy timetable to return to the field.

He underwent treatment with a specialist in Germany in September and only returned to practice this week. This week he has been listed as a limited participant in practice.

With McCaffrey out, the 4-4 Niners have struggled to repeat their success from last season, both due to the running back’s absence and other factors. Jordan Mason has handled the bulk of the running duties, posting 685 rushing yards and three touchdowns while averaging 5.1 yards per carry. carry (McCaffrey averaged 5.4 yards last season).

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave is expected to be placed on injured reserve with a concussion, according to NFL Networks Ian Rapoport.

Olave suffered the head injury after an illegal blindside hit in Sunday’s loss to the Carolina Panthers. He was carted off the field and hospitalized for further evaluation, but was eventually released the same day.

By being placed on IR, Olave will be out for at least four games. But Olave is reportedly seeking expert opinions on his concussion from specialists, meaning he could be out for longer.

CeeDee Lamb has a bruised shoulder after the Dallas Cowboys’ loss to the Atlanta Falcons last week. He finished the game and has been limited in practice, but he has progressed enough where he feels confident he will be on the field against the Eagles.

“I feel like I’ve taken a big step during the week in the last two or three days,” Lamb said. “But I feel good, I was out there running today, I got it right.”

Lamb, who has no plans to wear a brace of any kind, will have a new quarterback for him this week. With Dak Prescott out with a hamstring injury, Cooper Rush will take over the starting duties as the Cowboys look to snap a four-game losing streak.

“We’ve connected, we’ve taken a lot of reps outside of practice, just talking, communicating, getting on the same page,” Lamb said. “I feel it’s very important with the situation coming up and I’m happy for him, we know what Coop can do, the confidence is still there.”

The Tennessee Titans are getting quarterback Will Levis back under center after he has been out since Oct. 13 with a right shoulder injury.

“I’m competitive and I want to be out there every week,” Levis said this week. “It’s a shame when you’re out there and can’t play. So hopefully I’ll be able to go this week. I’ve been struggling a little bit and excited to go out there and lead our team.”

Levis was dealing with a grade two AC sprain in his right shoulder and has been week to week. Mason Rudolph started Tennessee’s last three games with the Titans, going 1-2 over that stretch.
