Marqise Lee Reportedly Suffered High Ankle Sprain Injury

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marqise Lee suffered a high ankle sprain in Sunday's practice but is expected to "push hard" to be in the lineup for Week 1.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported the news, noting the timetable is fluid depending on how Lee's body reacts to the injury.

Lee, 25, was carted from the field after suffering the non-contact injury to his right leg during 7-on-7 drills. 

"I know they were touching around in the lower part of him, but you're really not going to get anything until the doctor sees him," coach Doug Marrone told reporters.

Lee played in all 16 games for the first time in his NFL career last season, recording 63 receptions for 851 yards and three touchdowns. He is currently listed as the team's second starting receiver behind Allen Robinson.

Allen Hurns could get an extended look in that spot if Lee's forced to miss any regular-season action.

Lee missed nine games over his first two years due to various injuries, limiting his growth within the offense and allowing for the emergence of Hurns and Robinson. Now that he was fully expected to take another leap in 2017, it's a bit of unfortunate timing that another injury could force him to miss games.
