Browns and Jaguars Face Off in Crucial Game Amid Quarterback Injuries

Joe Flacco Steps Up for Browns, Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence's Participation Uncertain Due to Injury

Joe Flacco is set to make his second start for the Cleveland Browns against the Jacksonville Jaguars, after being signed three weeks ago as emergency protection when quarterback Deshaun Watson suffered a season-ending shoulder injury.
The Jaguars are dealing with their own quarterback issue after Trevor Lawrence suffered a high ankle sprain against Cincinnati. If Lawrence can't play, backup C.J. Beathard will start.
The Browns currently hold one of the three wild-card spots, but their grip isn't as tight after dropping road games in Denver and Los Angeles the past two weeks. Another slip-up could put their playoff chances in serious peril.
The Jaguars lead the AFC South by one game over Indianapolis and Houston, but have been hit hard by injuries, losing Lawrence, wide receiver Christian Kirk and left tackle Walter Little.
Jacksonville is the only NFL team with a perfect road record this season, with a 4-0 record in true road games and 6-0 away from EverBank Stadium.
