Jacksonville running back Toby Gerhart will not play on Sunday when the Jaguars play the Cleveland Browns.

A right foot injury sidelined Gerhart for last week’s game against Tennessee and the Jaguars are taking a cautious approach to his recovery.

“He’s really improved, but I think it’s at the point now where if we give him these extra couple days, we’re hoping that it won’t be every week that it’s something that we’re dealing with,” Jaguars coach Gus Bradley said Friday.

Bradley said Gerhart should be ready to go at 100 percent on Oct. 26 against the Miami Dolphins.

“There’s still a little bit of lingering stuff and they said we want it to be right,” Gerhart told ESPN. “We don’t want it to nag anymore, so let’s take a little bit more time and go from there. It’s frustrating, disappointing, but in the end it’s going to be best for me.”

Gerhart was injured in the season’s first game against Philadelphia. He played in the next three games, but hurt his foot again in a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers two weeks ago.

After a stellar 2013 season, Gerhart clearly has struggled because of the injury. He has only 123 yards rushing on 48 carries.
