Jacksonville Jaguars guard Zane Beadles returned to practice on Friday and is expected to start against the Jets, according to ESPN’s Adam Caplan.

Beadles has missed time with a sprained foot after sustaining the injury in the Jaguars' 34–31 victory over the Buffalo Bills on Oct. 25.

Beadles has not missed a game since being drafted out of Utah by the Denver Broncos in the second round of the 2010 NFL draft. He was named to the Pro Bowl in 2012.

Beadles did not practice on Wednesday and returned on Thursday on a limited basis. No signs of discomfort on Friday may be enough to clear him for play on Sunday.

The Jaguars snapped a four-game losing streak with their victory over the Bills before taking a bye week to rest.
