Jacksonville, FL --- Jaguars RB Maurice Jones-Drew suffered a sprained left knee late in the fourth quarter of a 29-7 loss to the visiting Colts in Week 7. The injury didn't appear too serious, as he walked to the locker room without assistance. He finished with 13 carries for 52 yards and a touchdown, scoring from one yard out in the third quarter. He also caught three passes for 17 yards and returned four kicks for 133 yards.

The injury happened with less than two minutes remaining and the Jaguars down by 22, meaning Jones-Drew might've just left as a precaution. For now, we don't think the injury will prove a serious one, but check back later in the week for his status. If healthy, he's a No. 1 Fantasy RB in Week 8 when the Jaguars visit the Buccaneers. He now has four touchdowns in his last three games.
