The Jacksonville Jaguars have two players on their final Week 3 injury report with injury designations.
Offensive lineman Wyatt Milum (knee) has been ruled out, while left guard Ezra Cleveland (ankle) is questionable.

However, given an injury designation is cornerback Montaric Brown, which means he will make his 2025 season debut on Sunday against Houston.
Brown was sidelined for most of training camp with an ankle injury. Over the first few weeks of the season, he has been working his way back.
Last week, Brown was limited all three days before the Jaguars‘ Week 2 matchup, and this week, he was a full participant all three practice days.
Prior to Brown’s injury, he was a regular with the starting defense, lining up opposite of Tyson Campbell.
Since then, Jarrian Jones has primarily been in that role, although Travis Hunter just played 43 defensive snaps against Cincinnati.

How the Jaguars plan to work Brown back in remains to be seen. Does he immediately step back into that starting role, or will defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile have to figure out some sort of rotation between Brown, Jones, and Hunter?
The Houston offense is averaging just 14 points per game, but led by quarterback CJ Stroud and wide receiver Nico Collins, this Texans’ passing game has the ability to pack some punch.
