Evan Engram Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Jaguars HC Doug Pederson announced Friday that TE Evan Engram will have season-ending surgery to fix a torn shoulder labrum. That should mean Brenton Strange leads Jacksonville TE opportunities over the final four games.

Jaguars TE Evan Engram (shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday. HC Doug Pederson said he expects Engram to play vs. the Jets this weekend, although Pederson has been unreliable when it comes to injuries. We'll see if Engram gets back on the practice field tomorrow.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) is active for today’s game vs. the Texans. He’ll be playing through a significant AC joint injury to his left shoulder that might eventually require surgery. Lawrence would be a shaky start even in superflex leagues. But his return is good news for WR Brian Thomas Jr. and TE Evan Engram.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) is expected to play vs. the Texans this weekend, HC Doug Pederson said Friday. Lawrence will be playing through a significant AC joint injury to his left shoulder that might eventually require surgery. It's his non-throwing shoulder, but there's still some risk that Lawrence takes a shot and is forced to exit. Against a Texans squad ranked fourth in pass defense DVOA, Lawrence would be a shaky Week 13 fantasy play. But his return is excellent news for WR Brian Thomas Jr. and TE Evan Engram.

There's a "good possibility" that Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) starts against the Texans on Sunday if he avoids a setback over the next couple of days, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Lawrence took the "majority" of the first-team reps in Wednesday's practice, Rapoport adds. Lawrence is dealing with an AC joint injury in his left, non-throwing shoulder that might eventually require surgery. But he seems determined to play through it for the 2-9 Jaguars. Lawrence would not be a recommended fantasy play against Houston, but his return would be good news for WR Brian Thomas Jr. and TE Evan Engram.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) was limited in Wednesday's practice. HC Doud Pederson was non-committal on Lawrence's availability for this weekend's game vs. the Texans before practice. We'll continue to track his status over the next few days. Lawrence shouldn't be part of your Week 13 fantasy plans, but his return would be good news for WR Brian Thomas and TE Evan Engram.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) will practice on Monday, HC Doug Pederson said. The team will monitor Lawrence throughout the week before deciding whether he'll play against the Texans on Sunday. We're not sure why Lawrence would push through this injury for the 2-9 Jags, but his return would be good news for the offense. Jacksonville totaled 216 passing yards and 13 points over the last two games with QB Mac Jones.

Jaguars WR Gabriel Davis is believed to have suffered a torn meniscus in Sunday's loss to the Lions, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Davis is expected to undergo surgery, at which point doctors will determine whether the meniscus needs to be trimmed or fully repaired. The former would sideline Davis for multiple weeks; the latter would end his season. Either way, Davis is safe to drop from all redraft rosters. His absence certainly won't hurt WR Brian Thomas or TE Evan Engram's target potential the rest of the way. None of the other Jacksonville pass catchers are worth messing with in fantasy lineups.

Update: HC Doug Pederson confirmed Monday afternoon that Davis will miss the rest of the season. He should have plenty of time to prepare for the start of 2025.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) won't play vs. the Lions this weekend, HC Doug Pederson said Wednesday. Jacksonville gets a Week 12 bye, so perhaps we see Lawrence again in Week 13. But he's reportedly considering season-ending surgery on his injured left shoulder. Lawrence has no reason to rush back to the soon-to-be 2-9 Jags. QB Mac Jones gets another start on Sunday after an ugly Week 10: 111 yards, 0 TDs, and 2 INTs. That came against a tough Vikings defense, but this weekend's matchup against the Lions isn't much easier. Jones isn't a recommended play in any format and makes Jacksonville's skill-position players tough to trust.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (left shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Vikings after a limited week of practice. HC Doug Pederson admitted on Friday, though, that Lawrence is unlikely to play. That’ll leave QB Mac Jones at the helm for his first start in almost a year. Jones’ career passing numbers are similar to Lawrence’s, but we’re still considering him a downgrade for Jacksonville’s offense.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence is dealing with a left shoulder injury and continuing to get treatment. He has been labeled as day-to-day, but now is unlikely to play this Sunday while options are considered. There appear to be a wide range of outcomes for Lawrence and more missed games could be in his future. Mac Jones would be slated to start if Lawrence can't go.

Jaguars HC Doug Pederson said QB Trevor Lawrence is dealing with "upper-body" soreness and will be limited in Wednesday's practice. He wouldn't commit to Lawrence being available for this weekend's game vs. the Vikings. Jacksonville notably signed QB C.J. Beathard off Miami's practice squad on Wednesday for more depth. QB Mac Jones would start against Minnesota if Lawrence is unable. We'll keep you updated on the situation. Lawrence's absence would be a downgrade for Jacksonville's offense, although Jones is one of the better backups in the league.

Jaguars TE Evan Engram drew a team-high 10 targets in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. That marked a 33.3% share of Trevor Lawrence's targeted throws. He caught five for 45 yards, each of which also led the team on a sluggish passing day for the Jags.

Jaguars TE Evan Engram returned from a hamstring injury to post 10 catches for 102 yards in Week 6. His target share was a healthy 28.5%.

Jaguars TE Evan Engram (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Bears. It’ll be his first action since hurting his hamstring in pre-game warmups ahead of Week 2. Engram was limited in practice all this week. He comes with elevated risk but is still probably worth using for many fantasy teams. See where Engrams sits in the Week 6 TE Rankings.

Jaguars TE Evan Engram (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday morning’s game vs. the Bears after a limited week of practice. HC Doug Pederson has sounded more optimistic about Engram’s availability this week than last, so we’re tentatively expecting him to play. We’ll get Jacksonville’s inactives around 8 am ET on Sunday.

Jaguars TE Evan Engram (hamstring) remained limited in Wednesday's practice. He was limited all three days last week before missing the Colts game. HC Doug Pederson was optimistic about Engram's chances of playing vs. the Bears this weekend when asked on Wednesday, although he stopped short of guaranteeing that Engram will be out there. We'll keep tabs on his status over the next few days.

Jaguars TE Evan Engram (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Colts. He got in three limited practices this week, so he should be back for Week 6. TE Brenton Strange gets another start today but would be a desperation fantasy play. He's averaged 4.7 targets, 2.7 catches, and 32 yards over the past three games.

Jaguars TE Evan Engram (hamstring) is "not tracking to play" vs. the Colts tomorrow, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Engram put in three limited practices this week but evidently isn't ready for game action yet. Barring a setback, he should play vs. the Bears next week. His absence keeps TE Brenton Strange in the lead role for another week. He's averaged 4.7 targets, 2.7 catches, and 32 yards over the past three games.

Jaguars TE Evan Engram (hamstring) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Colts. HC Doug Pederson said Friday that Engram will likely be a game-time decision. We’ll get Jacksonville’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday, but Engram will carry elevated risk in fantasy lineups if he suits up.
