Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck was limited in practice on Thursday with soreness in his throwing shoulder, and is considered questionable for Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, coach Chuck Pagano said Friday.

Pagano said he remains confident that Luck would suit up.

Luck was officially listed as questionable on the Colts’ injury report Thursday. During practice, he took snaps but did not make a throw during the portion of the workout open to the media, reports Zak Keefer of the Indianapolis Star.

Thursday marked the second consecutive day Luck was limited in practice. Backups Matt Hasselbeck and Alex Tanney have filled in for him.

Colts head coach Chuck Pagano said Wednesday that he expected the quarterback to be ready by Sunday, but Schefter reported Thursday that it was unlikely Luck would throw much, if he throws at all, before Sunday.

In four years as the Colts’ quarterback, Luck has not missed a start. The last time he watched a game from the sidelines was in 2009, his freshman year at Stanford, according to Keefer.

The Colts (1–2) play the Jaguars (1–2) at home at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday.
