JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The Jacksonville Jaguars have elevated offensive lineman Chris Reed from the practice squad and released quarterback Ryan Nassib.
The addition of Reed to the 53-man roster likely means the Jaguars (2-2) are concerned about the health of center Brandon Linder (illness) and/or right guard A.J. Cann (hand). Linder missed practice earlier this week and was listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh (3-1). Cann was limited in two days of practice before working fully Friday.
Jacksonville dressed seven offensive linemen in each of the first four games.
The Jaguars signed Nassib nearly three weeks ago to be their third quarterback.
