John

Broussard

Broussard has shown excellent hands, in addition to his tremendous speed, throughout camp. This is more bad news on the part of Reggie Williams.

The loser is expected to go on the practice squad. Sharon ran as a starter in minicamps, then a third receiver throughout training camp, but it was apparently a motivational tactic aimed at Matt Jones and Reggie Williams.

The two younger players may be fighting for the final roster spot. After a shaky camp in which Jack Del Rio was apparently testing him, it looks like Williams will make the team. He’s still a backup; You don’t want to go near him in fantasy leagues.

Charles Sharon was a favorite of David Garrard, finishing with four grabs for 51 yards. Rookie John Broussard chipped in 40 yards on three receptions. Williams had a false start and caught just 60 percent of his targets, so it wasn’t a great night, but he appears to be Jacksonville’s fourth receiver.

At one point this preseason Sharon was considered the Jags’ third WR, but he ultimately lost out to John Broussard. The Jaguars hope he will clear waivers and can be put on the practice squad.

Playing while Reggie Williams was inactive, Broussard make a great sprawling catch in the end zone to haul in a 47-yard touchdown bomb from David Garrard. The rookie from San Jose State is Jacksonville’s current fourth receiver.

They were limited in practice Wednesday, but don’t appear to be in danger of sitting out against the Colts. Jones has mostly played fullback this season, while Northcutt and Broussard are parts of the Jaguars’ receiver rotation.

Wilford should be all systems go to start Sunday against the Chargers. The Jags will need Wilford with John Broussard (ankle) not expected to play.
