The AFC South race is coming down between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Houston Texans during the 2023 NFL season.

The Jaguars have looked much better after a slow start to the season, while the Texans have been the surprise team of the year as C.J. Stroud looks far ahead of schedule.

Jacksonville is hoping to take another leap in head coach Doug Pederson’s second year manning the sidelines, and Trevor Lawrence’s third season under center.

On paper, the Jaguars have enough talent on both sides of the field to compete with just about anyone in the league though there have been several weeks where they look completely out of their depth.

As is the case with every team, health plays a large factor in whether or not they’re able to advance far enough into the postseason.

Unfortunately for Jacksonville, they saw starting left tackle Cam Robinson leave the game in their pivotal Week 12 matchup against Houston via Charean Williams of ProFootballTalk.

Robinson got hurt on the first play of the Jaguars’ second drive, a pass that was incomplete to Travis Etienne.

The tackle was escorted to the blue medical tent and was seen shortly after with a towel on his head and crying.

It was a tough scene for Jacksonville and Robinson considering that the injury occurred on the same knee that he underwent surgery for to repair a torn ACL back in 2018.

The Jaguars slid Walker Little over to left tackle and Ezra Cleveland to left guard, but now all eyes are on Robinson’s health going forward.
