NFL fans won't get to see Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles take on his old team. Jaguars coach Doug Marrone indicated Foles is unlikely to play in the team's next preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com.

“I will take a good look at it after [Wednesday] and probably not play some of the players [on Thursday],” Marrone said. “We will play [our starters] the third preseason game. … I think it's important that you play that game because you are presenting and you want to get the players in the right frame of mind. I hope that I was able to kind of clear these things up. I should have probably done it earlier.”

Marrone said that his usual policy would've been to play starters in the second preseason game, but the rash of injuries the Jags suffered last year made him change his mind. Foles, of course, led the Eagles to their first Super Bowl win two seasons ago and is a bonafide legend in Philadelphia. For his part, Foles said he isn't worried about whether or not he plays.

“I'm going to leave all of those things up to Coach,” Foles said. “All I'm going to do is handle what I can control, and that's coming out here and competing with my teammates, working hard, studying the film, working in meetings and walk-throughs, and whatever he decides, I'll go with.”

It would've made for great television to see Foles go up against his old teammates and do battle with Carson Wentz, but it apparently wasn't meant to be. The Eagles have been taking a very cautious approach with Wentz, so it's possible he won't play in this game, either.
