The Jaguars list QB Trevor Lawrence (knee) as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Steelers. He played through this knee issue last week, even running for a season-high 59 yards. Lawrence is fully expected to play against Pittsburgh.
In a shocking turn of events, Patriots QB Mac Jones played competent football on Sunday vs. the Bills. The third-year starter completed 25 of 30 passes for 272 yards with 2 TDs in the upset Week 7 victory. While this performance doesn’t erase the abysmal three-game skid Jones has been on of late, he deserves a lot of credit for stepping up to the plate in this divisional contest. We won’t be super excited to roll him out in Week 8 vs. the Dolphins, but this showing at least puts him within the lower-end of the QB2 conversation in superflex leagues.
Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (knee) is active for tonight's game against the Saints. Lawrence has said all along he planned to play in this game. He does sit outside our top 12 QBs in the Week 7 rankings, through -- which is especially noteworthy given that a season-high six teams are on bye.
Jaguars HC Doug Pederson told ESPN's Ed Werder that QB Trevor Lawrence is expected to start tonight's game vs. the Saints, "pending a pregame workout." ESPN's Adam Schefter adds that, "Lawrence has reported improvement in his mild left knee sprain." We'd still expect his mobility inside and outside of the pocket to be limited tonight. We'll get Jacksonville's inactives a little before 7 pm ET.
Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Saints. He got in limited practices on Tuesday and Wednesday. Lawrence has expressed optimism about his availability for Thursday night, and we're expecting him to play. But between the knee issue and a difficult matchup, he sits lower than usual in the Week 7 QB Rankings.
Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence told reporters on Tuesday that he's "optimistic" that he'll be able to play vs. the Saints on Thursday night, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. “But of course we'll have to make that decision on Thursday," Lawrence added. He was on the practice field on Tuesday with a brace on that injured left knee. Backup QB C.J. Beathard said he took the majority of the first-team reps but called Lawrence “very likely” to play on Thursday. Check back tomorrow for another update on Lawrence.
ESPN's Adam Schefter calls Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence "uncertain" for Thursday night's game vs. the Saints with his knee sprain. Lawrence's injury “is not a significant thing," a source tells Schefter. But the short turnaround comes at a bad time. We'll keep you updated on Lawrence's status over the next few days. QB C.J. Beathard is Jacksonville's backup.
Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence is currently considered "day-to-day" with his knee injury, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Lawrence is still scheduled for an MRI on Monday. "The belief is no major injury for Lawrence," Rapoport adds. "It's a quick turnaround for Thursday, but the hope is he's OK for it." We'll keep a close eye on Lawrence leading up to Thursday night's game vs. the Saints.
Patriots QB Mac Jones miraculously didn’t get benched in Week 6 vs. the Raiders. The former first-round NFL draft pick completed 24 of 33 passes for 200 yards with 1 INT in the contest. For those keeping score at home, Jones' 5 total fantasy points over the last three weeks match his number of INTs thrown in that span. He's indeed been a nightmare of late. Whispers that HC Bill Belichick might make a change at QB have grown louder over the past couple of weeks, and Jones’ effort on Sunday didn’t do much to lessen his odds of being replaced as New England’s starter. We’ll see if he gets the nod again in Week 7 vs. Bills. If he does, he should be nowhere near fantasy lineups.
Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught just three balls on 6 targets in Sunday's win over the Colts. But his 49 yards were enough to lead the team on a limited offensive day (233 total yards). WR Calvin Ridley drew a team-high 8 targets but managed just 30 yards on 4 receptions. TE Evan Engram was the only other Jaguar with more than 3 receptions.
Jaguars RB Travis Etienne scored twice on the ground in Sunday's win over the Colts. That helped hide that he gained just 55 yards on 18 carries (3.1 per rush). Etienne added 28 yards on 3 receptions. He dominated backfield work once again, so there's no reason to worry about the lagging efficiency. A Thursday night matchup with the Saints in Week 7 could be difficult, though.
Jaguars TE Evan Engram snagged all 7 targets in Sunday's lopsided win over the Colts. He turned that into just 41 yards, though, with nearly half of that coming on a single 19-yard reception. Engram easily led Jacksonville in receptions, with just one teammate catching more than three. It was Engram's third game of 7 receptions among the past four. Engram also has yet to average 10 yards per catch or score a TD in a game, though. That makes him a high-floor, low-ceiling fantasy producer.
Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence hurt his left knee late in Sunday's win over the Colts. But we can't blame that for his lack of production. Lawrence's injury didn't occur until Jacksonville's last actual offensive play. QB C.J. Beathard came on for only three kneel-downs to close out the game. Before that, Lawrence threw for just 181 yards on 20-of-30 passing. That 6.0 yards per attempt marked Lawrence's second-lowest rate through the first six games -- in his first game with fewer than 200 passing yards. We're not sure there's a larger takeaway from this one, which found the Jags performing just OK on offense in the rematch with a division rival. Jacksonville netted a mere 233 total yards while benefiting from four Colts turnovers. Don't be surprised if Lawrence falls out of the top 12 at QB when we update our Week 7 rankings.
Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence injured his left knee in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Colts. It didn't look serious, but Lawrence has a quick turnaround for Thursday night's game vs. the Saints. We'll keep you updated on his status. QB C.J. Beathard is Jacksonville's backup.
Jaguars CB Tyson Campbell left in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Colts with a hamstring injury. He's questionable to return.
Jaguars LB Devin Lloyd is active for today's game against the Colts. He missed the past 2 games after surgery to repair his right thumb. Lloyd's return today should knock LB Chad Muma back down to a part-time role.
Patriots QB Mac Jones will be on a "short leash" vs. the Raiders today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "A poor opening few series could potentially trigger another QB to take snaps in Las Vegas," Rapoport writes. It's unclear, though, whether QB Bailey Zappe or QB Will Grier would replace Jones. Rapoport adds that New England has a package of plays ready for rookie QB Malik Cunningham. It's obviously a situation to stay far away from in Week 6 fantasy lineups.
Jaguars LB Devin Lloyd (thumb) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts. He said earlier in the week that he'd be ready to play with a cast on the repaired thumb. We'll check Lloyd's status Sunday morning. If he can't go, Chad Muma would get another game in his place.
Patriots QB Mac Jones is expected to start Sunday's game vs. the Raiders, according to The Athletic's Jeff Howe. "I’m told this is still an important week of practice for [Jones] as the Patriots evaluate every position on the roster on the heels of the worst two losses of Bill Belichick’s career," Howe adds. Jones has been awful the past two weeks: 56% completion rate, 6.1 yards per attempt, 0 TDs, and four INTs. It sounds like there's still a chance that a bad week of practice sends him to the bench in favor of QB Bailey Zappe. Either way, you should be avoiding this situation in Week 6 fantasy lineups.
Patriots QB Mac Jones tried to play football in Week 5 vs. the Saints, but a pair of INTs and a lost fumble really got in the way of success. He completed just 12 of 22 passes for 110 yards before being benched for Bailey Zappe for the second week in a row. To make matters worse, one of Jones’ INTs was a pick-six TD, his third in 2023 alone. Jones started the year with some promising performances, but these last two weeks have to leave fantasy managers wondering how much longer it’ll be before New England makes a change at QB. We’ll see who’s under center in Week 6 vs. the Raiders.
