Jacksonville Jaguars rookie Travis Etienne is out indefinitely with a mid-foot sprain suffered in Monday night’s preseason loss to the New Orleans Saints, a league source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter .
Etienne’s injured left foot will require further testing, the source told Schefter. The rookie was seen wearing a protective boot after the match.
According to ESPN injury analyst Stephania Bell, midfoot sprains can vary greatly in terms of recovery time, and an important factor in the course of treatment will be whether it is considered stable or unstable.
Etienne caught a pass for 3 yards and carried the ball once for 1 yard before injury.
The Jaguars beat Etienne 25th overall in April and coach Urban Meyer said he planned to line up the receiver as well as reverse, similar to the way Meyer used Percy Harvin. in Florida.
Etienne left Clemson as the all-time leading runner in the ACC (4,752 yards).
