Jaguars down 3 of top 4 CBs vs. Eagles
The Jacksonville Jaguars will be thin at cornerback for their upcoming London matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.
A.J. Bouye will not travel with the team, as he's been ruled out for Week 8 due to a calf injury. Bouye suffered the injury during Wednesday's practice, and he was seen in a walking boot shortly after.
Tyler Patmon and D.J. Hayden will also miss Sunday's contest. Patmon has a neck injury, while Hayden - the team's primary slot cornerback - hasn't practiced since Sept. 21 after hurting his toe.
Rookies Quenton Meeks, Tre Herndon, and Dee Delaney could be thrust into larger roles against Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz, who has completed 70.8 percent of his pass attempts in 2018. Meeks is expected to start across from All-Pro Jalen Ramsey.
The Jaguars currently have the NFL's top passing defense. They're allowing only 179.7 yards per game through the air.
