Anton Harrison carted off the field in Week 5

Van Lanen should at least be active, although he is not guaranteed to start. The veteran blocker broke out last year, playing all across the line before settling in at left tackle. He suffered a knee injury in Week 18, which forced the coaching staff to get OT Anton Harrison for left tackle duties while penciling Van Lanen in at right tackle. The team also has capable OT Walker Little at the ready. Unfortunately, Harrison appeared on the injury report with a foot injury and was unable to practice on Friday. Hopefully, his sidelining was a precaution and he is not seriously injured. Stay tuned.

Harrison was drafted with the No. 27 overall pick back in 2023 and has started all 48 games he’s appeared in since joining the team. He has spent his entire career at right tackle, allowing 10 sacks and 93 pressures in 48 regular-season games, and earned a PFF pass-blocking grade of 75.6 last season — his highest mark to date. Harrison will now be under contract with the Jaguars through the 2027 season.

Over The Cap projects Harrison’s option at $19 million, but in announcing they’d pick it up, Jaguars GM James Gladstone said they’ll have “deeper conversations” on a long-term extension. Harrison, 24, had his best season yet in 2025, registering a career-high 75.6 PFF pass block grade while protecting Trevor Lawrence.

He was questionable after being added to the report with an illness Sunday morning. The only other questionable Jaguars player was C Robert Hainsey (groin), who was scratched. Also inactive for the Jaguars are: CB Keith Taylor, RB Bhayshul Tuten (finger), OL Patrick Mekari (back), TE Hunter Long, DL Danny Striggow (ankle) and DT Maason Smith.

Harrison was added to the injury report on Sunday morning, likely after falling ill over the weekend. Players tend to play through illnesses, so this shouldn’t be an issue for the Jags. Cole Van Lanen will take his spot in the lineup if Harrison can’t go.

He was injured in the second quarter and vacated the sideline quickly afterwards. Harrison was replaced by Chuma Edoga.

Harrison left in the second half of the Jaguars’ game against the Texans in Week 3 with an ankle injury. He is questionable to return.

They also signed fifth-round DT Tyler Lacy. Harrison, a two-year starter at Oklahoma, should open the year at left tackle for the Jaguars with Cam Robinson facing a multi-game suspension, and projects to start on the right side when Robinson returns. With Harrison and Lacy under contract, Jacksonville has signed its entire 2023 draft class.

Harrison (6’4/315) enters the 2023 NFL Draft having played 34 games in Norman, with the majority at left tackle. In that span, he allowed only four sacks and three QB hits, earning a grade of 72.6 from PFF for the 2022 season while being named First Team All-Big-12. The DC native has the aptitude to be yet another NFL-ready offensive tackle that Oklahoma has produced in recent years. At first glance, he may seem a bit undersized, but cutting one’s teeth in the Big 12 leads to the development of a certain savviness that only comes when producing in the wide open offenses of the Great Plains region. Harrison lacks a plus tool when it comes to both strength and lateral movement, which is why he didn’t bench or do agility drills at the Combine despite posting a rock-solid 1.71s 10-yard split (96th%). However, he seeks to offset those deficiencies with a keen understanding of proper positioning and how to use the play call to leverage his strengths and minimize his limitations. Harrison actively searches for work and is able to hold his ground just long enough or get just enough of a speed rusher that his pass sets are simply effective. These weaknesses are slightly harder to mask in the run game, but he can make up for his physical makeup with additional technical development in timing and leverage. Harrison bears a resemblance to Tulsa OT Tyler Smith who slid into the late first-round to the Cowboys last year.
