The Jaguars starting running back was said by head coach Urban Meyer to have made some improvement but is day to day with a heel contusion. This type of injury is definitely something that he can play through. The question is will his coaches choose to do so? The running back position is played on the balls of his feet, not his heels meaning he wouldn’t damage heel by playing through injury. Running/cutting should be a minimal problem if at all for James Robinson and physically it seems he should be able to play through his current heel contusion. Jacksonville will need him as they try and extend their winning streak to two as they face the Buffalo Bills.
