Jaguars’ Tyson Campbell has been placed on the IR with a hamstring injury

To start the 2024 season, the Jacksonville Jaguars were on the road to face the Miami Dolphins. The Jaguars had a touchdown lead heading into halftime but failed to score points in the second half. Jacksonville lost 20-17 as Miami’s Jason Meyers hit a walk-off 52-yard field goal. 

In that loss to the Dolphins, Jaguars’ starting CB Tyson Campbell suffered a hamstring injury. Campbell played in 75% of the team’s defensive snaps in Week 1. NFL insider Ari Meirov reported that Campbell is being placed on the IR. The 24-year-old is now set to miss the next four games for Jacksonville. They play the Browns, Bills, Texans, and Colts.
