NFL injury watch Week 13: Trevor Lawrence expected to return, Brock Purdy questionable, JK Dobbins out

Surgery could be on the horizon for Trevor Lawrence, but the Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback is expected to start Sunday against the Houston Texans, head coach Doug Pederson said Friday.

Lawrence, who is on the questionable list, has missed the Jaguars’ last two games with a sprained left shoulder suffered Nov. 3 against the Philadelphia Eagles. But after returning to training this week, there was hope he would be able to return to the field this week.

“I mean [the sprained AC joint] it’s been pretty hard to gauge, frankly, what the best path forward is,” Lawrence said Wednesday.[Surgery is] definitely something I’m considering and not off the table at all. It’s something we’ll just have to do [approach] indeed day to day, week to week.

Pederson said, “He’s had a good week. I’d say from now on, yeah, he’s going to play.”

After missing the San Francisco 49ers loss to the Green Bay Packers and being limited in practice this week, quarterback Brock Purdy has been listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game against the Buffalo Bills.

Purdy is dealing with a right shoulder injury and has yet to practice since the injury on Nov. 17 against the Seattle Seahawks.

Left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) and rusher Nick Bosa (hip/oblique), who also did not play in Week 12, have been ruled out for the Bills game.

A sprained knee knocked running back JK Dobbins out of Monday night’s loss to the Baltimore Ravens, and the injury will now force him to miss time for the Los Angeles Chargers.

He will definitely miss this week’s game against the Atlanta Falcons. In addition, his status is considered week-to-week.

Dobbins, who missed the 2021 season with a torn ACL and then suffered a torn Achilles in Week 1 last season, had a bounce-back year with 766 rushing yards and eight touchdowns in 11 games for the 7-4 Chargers.
