Ross Matiscik nursing shoulder injury

Jacksonville Jaguars long snapper Ross Matiscik suffered a shoulder injury during the team’s 19-17 Week 5 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles, leaving him questionable for the upcoming matchup. The injury forced the Jaguars to improvise, with defensive tackle DaVon Hamilton stepping in to cover the position—including on the game-winning play, a 57-yard field goal by kicker Cam Little with just one second remaining.

In response to the injury, Jacksonville quickly signed veteran long snapper Jacob Bobenmoyer, who is already en route to London ahead of Sunday’s game against the Houston Texans. The move underscores the Jaguars’ special teams struggles, as they managed the entire win without a dedicated long snapper on the field.
