The Jaguars placed Hodges (knee) on injured reserve Monday, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports. Hodges was carted off the field with a knee injury in the Jaguars' Week 9 loss to the Eagles, so his placement on IR on Monday comes as no surprise. He was starting in place of the injured Ezra Cleveland (ankle) on Sunday, meaning Blake Hance may serve as Jacksonville's top left guard in Week 10's matchup against the Vikings if Cleveland remains sidelined.

The Jaguars placed Hodges (knee) on injured reserve Monday, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports. Hodges was carted off the field with a knee injury in the Jaguars' Week 9 loss to the Eagles, so his placement on IR on Monday comes as no surprise. He was starting in place of the injured Ezra Cleveland (ankle) on Sunday, meaning Blake Hance may serve as Jacksonville's top left guard in Week 10's matchup against the Vikings if Cleveland remains sidelined.
Hodges (leg) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's contest against the Eagles, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports. Hodges was carted off the field in the second half after suffering a leg injury, so it comes as no surprise that he won't be able to return. Blake Hance will handle a greater workload at offensive guard in his absence.
Hodges (back) played 49 snaps on offense and one snap on defense in Saturday's 26-13 preseason win against the Chiefs. Hodges was held out of practice due to a back injury, but he was healthy enough to suit up for Jacksonville's preseason opener, and he played the second-most snaps on the team behind fellow guard Cole Van Lanen. Hodges missed all of 2023 with a season-ending patella injury, and the 2023 seventh-rounder is competing for a reserve role on the Jags' offensive line.
Hodges missed Wednesday's practice with a back injury, Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports. The second-year offensive lineman out of Appalachian State is now dealing with a back issue, which could jeopardize his chances of making Jacksonville's 53-man roster. Once Hodges returns to full health, he's expected to compete for a depth role on the Jaguars' offensive line.
Hodges (knee) participated in OTAs on Tuesday, Justin Lewis of the Florida Times-Union reports. Hodges sustained a patella injury in the Jaguars' second preseason game last year. He missed the entire regular season after being placed on the IR on August 31. The 2023 seventh-round pick appears to have recovered from the injury, and he should provide the Jaguars with depth on the offensive line for the upcoming season.
