Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten is expected to play Sunday against the Tennessee Titans despite missing back-to-back practices earlier in the week due to a foot and ankle injury.
Tuten practiced on a limited basis Friday and appeared without a game status on the team’s final injury report of the week. In NFL terminology, players listed without a game designation are cleared to participate.
“He’ll be good to go on Sunday,” Jaguars head coach Coen said of Tuten regarding his status for the upcoming matchup.
The running back had previously sat out sessions on Wednesday and Thursday.

While Tuten cleared the final hurdle, center Robert Hainsey emerged as the team’s only player listed as questionable for Sunday. Hainsey put in limited practices on both Thursday and Friday while managing a concussion.
Several other key contributors appeared on the final injury report without any game status attached, securing their availability for the weekend contest. That group includes running back Chris Rodriguez dealing with a hand injury, wide receiver Jakobi Meyers managing an ankle issue, and guard Ezra Cleveland listed with knee and ankle concerns.
Defensive end Travon Walker with a rib injury, linebacker Branson Combs recovering from a shoulder issue, and safety Antonio Johnson dealing with an ankle problem round out the players cleared for action.
Defensive end B.J. Green will not play Sunday after the team officially ruled him out on Friday. Green logged a full practice for the third consecutive day as the franchise evaluated his progress.
The team opened Green’s 21-day practice window this week to return from injured reserve following a forearm injury.
