Jacksonville Jaguars standout returner and wide receiver Jamal Agnew sustained a fracture in his lower leg Sunday and is done for the rest of the season.

Head coach Doug Pederson announced Agnew’s injury to reporters Monday.

Agnew, 28, coming off a Pro Bowl campaign in 2022, averaged 10.3 yards on punt returns and 26.1 yards per kick return this season. He also had 14 catches for 225 yards and a touchdown in 11 games (one start) at WR.

Agnew missed four games earlier this season with a shoulder injury before sustaining the leg injury in Sunday’s 26-0 win against the Carolina Panthers.

Agnew has six career returns for touchdowns, four on punts and two on kickoffs. He has 77 career receptions for 746 yards and five TDs. He was named All-Pro after his rookie season in Detroit.

The Jaguars (9-7) can clinch the AFC South with a win at the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. The Jags are currently the fourth seed in the AFC and have not clinched a playoff berth yet.

Jags quarterback Trevor Lawrence was ruled out of Sunday’s win over Carolina with a shoulder injury. It’s unclear if he’ll be able to return Sunday against the Titans (5-11).
