The Jacksonville Jaguars placed starting cornerback Alan Ball on season-ending injured reserve with a biceps injury on Wednesday.

Ball suffered the injury during the Jaguars’ 24-6 victory over the Cleveland Browns on Oct. 19. He missed last Sunday’s 27-13 loss to the Miami Dolphins.

Ball signed a two-year, $1.67 million contract in March 2013. He will be an unrestricted free agent after this season.

Ball started 15 games last season and the first seven this season and compiled 69 tackles, three interceptions and 17 pass breakups. He led the team with 14 pass breakups in 2013.

Ball played for the Dallas Cowboys from 2007 to 2011 and for the Houston Texans in 2012 before joining the Jaguars.

The Jaguars also signed cornerback Tommie Campbell, who was with the Tennessee Titans from 2011 to 2013 and was waived in final cuts in August. The Titans drafted Campbell in the seventh round.
