One starter will be returning for theJacksonville Jaguarson Sunday against Houston, while another will be out.
Safety Eric Murray, who missed last week's game with a concussion, does not have an injury designation and will be available for Sunday's contest. With Murray back in the mix, Rayuan Lane will be the third safety, who still sees regular playing time in Anthony Campanile's defense.
However, Montaric Brown, who is still working through a hamstring injury, will be out. After not playing in Week 4, he briefly returned last week before exiting the game. Jarrian Jones and Travis Hunter will take all of the outside cornerback snaps.

In addition to Brown being ruled out, so has long-snapper Ross
Matiscik with a shoulder injury. He exited last week's win against Philadelphia early
Without Matiscik, veteran Jacob Bobenmoyer, who was signed to the practice squad earlier this week, will be elevated.
Cornerback Jaylon Jones (hamstring) is questionable. He was signed to the 53-man roster last week but did not play because of this injury. His contributions will largely come on special teams.
