FOXBORO, Mass. – The Jaguars will have starting right guard Brandon Linder Sunday.
They'll have wide receiver Marqise Lee, too, with the two players being declared active an hour and a half before kickoff of Sunday's game against the New England Patriots.
Left tackle Luke Joeckel and safety Johnathan Cyprien were declared inactive.
Joeckel had missed last week's victory over Miami with an ankle injury, practicing limited Wednesday and Thursday before missing practice Friday. Lee had played last Sunday after being out six weeks with a hamstring issue, but was downgraded from probable to questionable Saturday.

The Jaguars will play the Patriots at Gillette Stadium Sunday at 1 p.m.
Defensive tackle Sen'Derrick Marks (knee) and running back Denard Robinson (knee) also were ruled out shortly before kickoff. They had been listed as doubtful on the Friday injury report.
