Jags’ WR Lee rules out for Colts game

The Jacksonville Jaguars announced on Thursday that rookie wide receiver Marquise Lee will not play Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts because of a hamstring injury.

During Wednesday’s practice, he re-aggravated a hamstring injury that he first felt before last week’s game against Washington.

Lee’s injury further depletes the Jaguars’ receiving corps. Three other receivers will miss or are likely to miss the Colts game, according to the Florida times-Union.

Rookie Allen Hurns is battling ankle problems. Veteran Cecil Shorts III has his own hamstring issues. Both could play.

Ace Sanders remains suspended for violating the NFL’s substance-abuse policy.

“My main focus is getting it right,” said Lee, who is tied for the team lead with eight catches for 73 yards. “The hamstring can linger. If you try to continue to try to come back, come back, come back when you’re feeling 85, 90 [percent], you’re still going to have issues.”

The Jaguars might turn to Tavarres King, who was signed off Carolina’s practice squad. Allen Robinson remains a likely candidate to start.
