Cleared for Sunday's playoff game Mekari (back) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's wild-card round game against the Bills.

Impact Mekari could slot back in at right guard, where he was playing prior injuring his back in Week 16 against the Broncos. Walker Little had been filling in at right guard, but Little may be needed at left tackle if the questionable Cole Van Lanen (knee) doesn't get the green light Sunday.

Looks to clear concussion protocol Mekari (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Mekari suffered a concussion Nov. 28 and was unable to play in last Sunday's win over the Titans. The starting right guard upgraded to a full participant Thursday, and seems to be ready to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup with the Colts. With Chuma Edoga (calf) and Walker Little (concussion) both questionable, Mekari's presence back on the field will be a strong boost to the Jaguars' offensive line.

Back at practice Mekari (lower back) was an active participant at the Jaguars' practice Sunday, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Mekari was dealing with back spasms throughout the week, forcing him to miss a series of practices as a result. The offensive lineman was back in action Sunday, and he will likely be available to play in Saturday's preseason opener against the Steelers, if needed.

Dealing with back spasms Mekari (lower back) is not expected to miss an extended period of time,Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports.

Impact Mekari left practice early last week and is yet to return to the field, but head coach Liam Cohen said he isn't dealing with anything serious. The 27-year-old signed a three-year deal with Jacksonville in March after spending the first six years of his career in Baltimore and starting all 17 games last season. He is set to play a big role in the interior of the offensive line, and the team says they feel no need to rush his return.
