Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence threw for 310 yards and claimed a 1-yard TD on the ground in Sunday's loss to the Giants. It wasn't his most efficient passing day. Despite taking 0 sacks and avoiding turnovers, Lawrence completed just 22 of his 43 attempts (51.2%). His 3 rushing TDs over the past 2 games have saved otherwise lackluster fantasy outings. All 3 came from 2 yards out or closer, though, and Lawrence is averaging just 12 rushing yards per game. Lawrence did plenty of scoring on the ground near the goal line in college, but his recent rushing-TD binge looks more luck-driven than projectable factor.
Jaguars WRs Christian Kirk and Zay Jones tied for the team target lead with 10 apiece in Sunday's loss to the Giants. Kirk grabbed a team-high 7 catches for a team-high 96 yards. Jones caught 4 balls, tying TE Evan Engram and WR Marvin Jones Jr. for 2nd. No other Jaguar caught more than 1 pass in the game.
The Jaguars finally gave RB Travis Etienne control of the backfield for Sunday's loss to the Giants. He handled 14 of the team's 15 RB carries, racking up 114 yards and a TD. Etienne caught just 1 of his 5 targets for 5 yards. RB James Robinson, meanwhile, garnered 0 carries and failed to catch his sole target. JaMycal Hasty got the only other RB rush (and 0 targets). Barring a revelation of some injury for Robinson, Etienne is looking startable going forward.
Jaguars LB Foye Oluokun (calf) is active for today's game against the Giants. He belongs in IDP lineups.
Lions WR Josh Reynolds (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Cowboys. He’ll be Detroit’s #2 WR if that knee holds up. But Reynolds would be a risky fantasy play after getting in just a limited practice on Friday.
Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) is "on track" to start Monday night's game vs. the Bears, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Jones took the "bulk" of the 1st-team reps in Saturday's practice, per Rapoport. Jones was struggling before going down with that high-ankle sprain in Week 3, and it figures to be a run-heavy attack from New England on Monday night. That leaves Jones as a weak QB2.
Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) is questionable for Monday night's game against the Bears. Jones said Friday the ankle "feels pretty good" and that he's "making a lot of progress." We'll probably have to wait until Monday to confirm that he's playing.
Jaguars LB Foye Oluokun (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants. He played through a questionable tag for the same issue last week and didn't miss a snap, so we're betting he'll play again. Jacksonville has ruled out CB Shaquill Griffin (back).
Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) was again limited in Friday's practice. It's still unclear if he'll be ready to play vs. the Bears on Monday night. We'll get New England's final injury report on Saturday afternoon.
Lions WR Josh Reynolds (knee) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Cowboys. He got in just a limited practice on Friday. So, if Reynolds plays on Sunday, it’s safe to assume he’ll be doing so at less than 100%. He’d be a risky fantasy start.
Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) remained limited in Thursday's practice. He's still New England's starter when healthy, but it's unclear if he'll be ready for Monday night's game vs. the Bears. We'll get another update tomorrow.
Jaguars LB Foye Oluokun (calf) is active for today's game against the Colts. There's likely some risk of re-injury, but Oluokun belongs in most IDP lineups.
Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Browns. We’ll see if he can make it back for Week 7. QB Bailey Zappe makes his 2nd career start today.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport calls Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) "highly unlikely" to play vs. the Browns today. Jones was officially limited in all 3 practices this week and is listed as questionable. But he always seemed like a long shot to play just 3 weeks after suffering what looked like a significant high-ankle sprain. QB Bailey Zappe will make his 2nd career start today.
Jaguars LB Foye Oluokun (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts. He put in limited practices all week. We'll check his status Sunday morning.
Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Browns. That's an upgrade from last week, when Jones was doubtful. We're still projecting QB Bailey Zappe to get another start this weekend, but we should get another update on the situation on Sunday morning.
Patriots QB Mac Jones (ankle) was again limited in Wednesday's practice. He was limited all last week before missing the Lions game, so this doesn't tell us much about his status for Sunday's game vs. the Browns. We'll get another update tomorrow.
Stepping up for an injured Rashod Bateman, Ravens WR Devin Duvernay totaled 5 catches for 54 yards. He added 24 rushing yards on 3 attempts, including one 12-yard burst where he picked up a fumble that hit him when in motion. Overall, he handled a 21.8% target share -- a clear 2nd on the team behind Mark Andrews. Duvernay’s dynamic skill set should keep him on the fantasy radar going forward, at least in deep formats. Consider Bateman questionable for Week 6 (at Giants) with his foot injury.
Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence endured a 2nd straight rough outing in Sunday's loss to the Texans. He completed just 53.2% of his passes and threw 2 INTs, with no TDs. That marks 2 straight games with multiple turnovers after a much stronger start to the year. Lawrence sent 11 targets to WR Marvin Jones, 10 to TE Evan Engram and 8 to WR Zay Jones, who returned after missing Week 4 with an ankle sprain. WR Christian Kirk drew just 3 looks but led Jacksonville pass-catchers in snaps and routes. The Jaguars get a Week 6 rematch with the Colts, who they beat 24-0 in Week 2. Then comes a home date with the Giants.
Bills WR Gabriel Davis had a big Sunday, thanks to TD catches of 98 and 62 yards in the win over the Steelers. He added 1 other reception, for a total of 171 yards and 2 TDs among 6 targets. That marked a 19.4% share of Josh Allen pass attempts. (QB Case Keenum then entered to close out the game.) Davis trailed only WR Stefon Diggs in that category, and matched Diggs' playing time. This looks like the level of usage we should expect from a healthy Davis. We'll see how the target share holds up once WR Isaiah McKenzie and TE Dawson Knox return from injuries.
