Injuries: Leonard Fournette to sit out Jaguars practice

Leonard Fournette appears to have escaped serious injury after his leg planted in scary fashion in the Jacksonville Jaguars' loss to the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, but the rookie tailback sat out Wednesday's practice nonetheless.

The Jaguars running back, along with receiver Marqise Lee (knee) and center Brandon Linder (illness), did not work out.

Despite the scary nature of Fournette's injury, the team and the running back appear to have hope he'll be available for Sunday's tilt against the Indianapolis Colts. Fournette is second in the league in rushing yards with 596, behind only Kareem Hunt's 630, and his six rushing touchdowns lead the NFL. If the rookie weren't able to go, veteran tailback Chris Ivory would likely carry the bulk of the load for the Jags.

Here are some other injuries we're tracking on this Wednesday in Week 7 of the NFL season:

1. Arizona Cardinals standout cornerback Patrick Peterson has every intention of playing in Twickenham Stadium on Sunday. Peterson told reporters Wednesday he's ready to go for the team's overseas tilt against the Rams despite dealing with a nagging quad injury and being limited in Wednesday's practice.
