Inside the Jaguars: Jones-Drew questionable
Maurice Jones-Drew now appears a bit more likely. Even so, the Jaguars’ three-time Pro Bowl running back’s status remained uncertain Friday as the team wrapped up its final full practice of the week at San Jose State University. Jones-Drew, the NFL’s leading rusher in 2011, missed practice Wednesday and Thursday with a strained tendon in his ankle, and Jaguars Head Coach Gus Bradley said Thursday Jones-Drew probably wouldn’t play Sunday in Seattle unless fully healthy. Bradley said Jones-Drew worked on a limited basis Friday, and will be listed as questionable.

Friday in Hawkville: Chris Clemons to play against Jaguars
A recap of the events at Virginia Mason Athletic Center for Sept. 20, when the Seahawks held their final full practice before Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars at CenturyLink Field. It was eight months and two weeks ago that Clemons – or Clem, as his teammates and coaches call him – damaged a ligament and meniscus in his left knee during the wild-card victory over the Washington Redskins. After not only making it through a full week of practice, but looking better each day, coach Pete Carroll announced that Clemons is ready to play.
