Jaguars QB Blake Bortles will practice Wednesday despite shoulder injury

There were a couple pieces of good news for the Jaguars on Wednesday afternoon.

Quarterback Blake Bortles said he will practice Wednesday after suffering a slight shoulder sprain in Sunday’s 38-31 loss at Tampa Bay. Jaguars coach Gus Bradley said Monday there was a chance Bortles wouldn’t be ready to practice Wednesday, but did expect him to play Sunday against visiting Houston.

Bortles eliminated any slim doubt on Wednesday. He said Bradley was taking “the safe route” on Monday.

“It’s fine,” Bortles said. “I don’t expect any limitations at all. I planned on practicing the whole time.
