Jaguars suffer another offensive line injury when Chuma Edoga goes down
The Jaguars suffered yet another injury on the offensive line early in their preseason game vs. the New Orleans Saints.
The Jacksonville Jaguars experienced yet another setback on the offensive line as Chuma Edoga went down during their first preseason game on August 15 against the New Orleans Saints. The injury occurred on the team's initial offensive play from scrimmage, when Edoga attempted to clear the way for DeeJay Dallas on a 2-yard run. The tackle's left leg buckled beneath him as he tried to plant the foot for the play.
Edoga, who traditionally started at right tackle, was replaced by undrafted rookie Jimto Obidegwu. Earlier in the preseason, Edoga had suffered a similar injury on August 7 during practice but had managed to recover and return. In addition to Edoga's latest injury, the Jaguars have also lost left tackle Walker Little in early camp, where he was injured on the first play of the mock game.
The team's current starting left tackle, Cole Van Lanen, remains on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, while right guard Patrick Mekari has struggled with recurring back issues and has played limited time in camp.
