Abdullah (neck) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears in London.
Abdullah sat out the Jaguars' Week 5 win over the Colts, but he'll get the green light to play in London after logging a trio of limited practices this week.

Abdullah (neck) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Abdullah missed the the Jaguars' Week 5 win over the Colts after sustaining a neck injury the week prior.

If Abdullah is forced to miss his second consecutive game in Week 6, expect Chad Muma to see increased snaps with the Jaguars' first-team defense.
