Luke Joeckel OK after concussion

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jacksonville Jaguars left tackle Luke Joeckel has recovered quicker than anticipated from the concussion he suffered in last week's loss to Miami and could play against Cincinnati on Sunday.

Joeckel was cleared Thursday to practice fully on Friday. The Jaguars want to see how Joeckel handles the workout and whether he has a reccurrence of concussion symptoms before making a determination on whether he'll be able to start against the Bengals. He was listed on Friday's injury report as probable.

"Everything looks good," coach Gus Bradley said.

Joeckel said earlier on Thursday that he doesn't have any remaining concussion symptoms and feels good.

"I'm ready to go," Joeckel said before practice. "I want to get back."

Joeckel suffered the injury during a field-goal attempt in the first quarter of the Jaguars' 27-13 loss. He said he was hit on the top of the head. Joeckel had played every snap at left tackle this season until his injury.
