The Jacksonville Jaguars aren't without injuries this week even though they expect to get a couple of players back during their nearly two-week stay in London for Weeks 6 and 7.
The Jaguars announced Wednesday afternoon that the team has placed receiver/return specialist Devin Duvernay on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury suffered against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 5.
Duvernay was signed this offseason as a replacement for Jamal Agnew to return kicks. Through five games, Duvernay has returned seven punts for 81 yards including a 53-yard return against the Colts on Sunday. He has returned five kickoffs for 100 yards.
