Brian Thomas Jr. is scheduled to play on Sunday

Thomas (chest) is listed as questionable but is expected to play on Sunday against the Eagles, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.

Barring a setback during pregame warmups, Thomas should be officially cleared to play after the Jaguars' inactive list is released 90 minutes before kickoff at 4:05 p.m. ET. Thomas was one of three Jacksonville receivers to escape with an injury following the Week 8 loss to the Packers, as he sat out the second half with a chest contusion. The rookie then took limited part in practice throughout preseason Week 9 before head coach Doug Pederson called him a game-winning decision for Sunday, but Thomas appears ready to lead a depleted Jacksonville receiving corps, which could lead to an additional target or two go in his direction. Christian Kirk is out for the season after breaking his left collarbone in Week 8, while Gabe Davis came through the loss to Green Bay with a shoulder injury and is listed as questionable for Week 9 but is unlikely to play in Philadelphia.
