Jaguars Rule Devin Lloyd Out of London Trip With Calf Injury

The team opted for caution after halftime clearance in Week 6 was followed by renewed tightness.

Overview

  • Jacksonville ruled the linebacker out before the overseas flight, so he will not face the Rams at Wembley.
  • Third-year pro Ventrell Miller is expected to start in Lloyd’s place.
  • Coach Liam Coen said Lloyd was medically cleared at halftime on Sunday, then the calf tightened and coaches kept him out.
  • During the loss to Seattle, the Jaguars did not announce an injury and described his sideline absence as a coaches' decision.
  • Lloyd, the AFC Defensive Player of the Month for September, leads the NFL with five takeaways and is in the final year of his rookie contract.
