The Jacksonville Jaguars will look for their first win of the season Sunday without a couple of wide receivers as Cecil Shorts and Marqise Lee will each miss Sunday’s matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Shorts missed the first two games with a hamstring problem before coming back for the last two games. But he re-aggravated the injury last week in San Diego and is out once again. He has just seven catches for 60 yards and a touchdown this season.
