Dominique Easley is expected to be back on the field when the New England Patriots face the Jacksonville Jaguars.

According to Jeff Howe of the Boston Herald, that has been the plan in place for the defensive lineman since Thursday.

The 2014 first-round pick reportedly sustained a hip pointer eight plays into the New England Patriots’ season opener and missed last Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Bills, but participated in practice under a limited capacity this week and was officially ruled questionable on Friday’s injury report.

Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET in Foxborough.
