Story summary

Laremy Tunsil tore his triceps in Saturday practice and will miss most of the 2026 season.
He is a five-time Pro Bowler who signed a two-year, $60.2 million extension in March.
The tear, which occurred during a one-on-one drill with linebacker Odafe Oweh, will require surgery and a four-to-seven-month recovery.
Potential replacements are swing lineman Andrew Wylie and former starter Brandon Coleman.

History

Historical Context

Since the 2012 collective-bargaining agreement let one player return from injured reserve after eight weeks, the NFL later expanded the rule to two players in 2017 and tied eligibility to eight games in 2018. That framework lets the Jacksonville Jaguars place tackle Laremy Tunsil on IR, freeing a roster spot while he recovers from a drill injury.
