Jaguars' Travon Walker Returns to Field After Wrist Surgery
12 Oct
Summary
- Travon Walker, Jaguars' defensive end, returns to play after missing last week
- Walker has 2 sacks, 12 tackles, and 4 QB hits so far this season
- Wrist injury required surgery, but he's now cleared to play against Seahawks
The Jacksonville Jaguars (4-1) will welcome back their star defensive end Travon Walker this Sunday when they take on the Seattle Seahawks (3-2). Walker, who has been one of the team's most disruptive players so far this season, missed last week's game against the Kansas City Chiefs due to a wrist injury sustained in Week 4 against the San Francisco 49ers.
The injury required surgery, but Walker returned to practice last Saturday on a limited basis and has been working with a club on his arm/wrist for the past two days. With no game-day status listed, he is now cleared to play against the Seahawks.
Through the first 5 weeks, Walker has recorded 2 sacks, a pass breakup, 12 tackles (2 for loss), and 4 quarterback hits. His presence will be a significant boost for the Jaguars' defense as they look to continue their strong start to the season.
