With the end of the season nearing, the Patriots may be able to afford sitting some players while the Jaguars, playing for pride, are limping toward the worst season in franchise history and hoping they can finish remotely close to healthy. The Jags can’t afford to sit starters, but with 18 players on injured reserve most of the starters will be resting anyway. So, who’s out and who’s in for the Jaguars hosting the Patriots?
