After missing Wednesday's practice due to injury, Jacksonville Jaguars' wide receiver Parker Washington was back on the field on Thursday.
Washington suffered a hip injury in the Jaguars' Week 13 win over Tennessee. He was officially listed as limited on the Thursday injury report.
While having Washington back on the field is certainly a good thing, the Jaguars appear to still be in wait-and-see mode when it comes to his availability for Sunday against Indianapolis.
"You look at these games down the stretch, like I mentioned the other day, your limited options, limited opportunities," Liam Coen said on Friday when asked about Washington. "Even though we see these guys again, I definitely think there's a heightened sense of awareness; you want to go play, you want to compete in games like this, ultimately. We'll see. We gotta make sure we're doing right by those guys and what's bes for our team though."
As the season has progressed, Washington's role on offense has increased. On the year, he's caught 36-of-57 passes for 447 yards with three touchdowns. Of his 36 receptions, 23 have gone for a first down.
As a punt returner, Washington also has two touchdown returns this season as well.
Coen added that if Washington is unable to play, Tim Patrick and Dyami Brown will help fill the void on offense next to Jakobi Meyers and Brian Thomas Jr.
Coen also mentioned Austin Trammell being elevated from the practice squad to handle punt return duties, being a part of that equation as well.
The Jaguars' final injury report with any injury designations will be released on Friday afternoon, at which point we will see what Washington's status is.
