Jacksonville Jaguars DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said quarterback Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) is dealing with a sore left shoulder and will be limited in Wednesday's practice. The team brought C.J. Beathard back as insurance because it strengthens the QB room head into a Week 10 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Mac Jones is still the backup. It's something we'll be monitoring with Lawrence, but the injury is to his non-throwing shoulder and shouldn't keep him from playing against the Vikings. Lawrence is coming off a 16-for-31 outing in the Week 9 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in which he threw for just 169 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions. In Week 10 if he's active, he'll merely be a low-upside QB2 option for fantasy managers in superflex leagues against a Vikings that has been middle of the pack in terms of fantasy points allowed to the position in 2024.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. was one of three different offensive players ruled active on the day of their game but was unable to get into much of a rhythm. The rookie wideout finished with four targets, two receptions, and 22 yards. The Philadelphia Eagles defense was doing a great job with nine passes defended, three QB hits, two sacks, and two interceptions, so Thomas didn't have much of a chance for fantasy points. His next chance to bounce back will be against another tough defense in the Minnesota Vikings in Week 10.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby was deemed active not too long before kickoff on Sunday but wasn't able to produce a big performance in the 28-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The 23-year-old saw eight carries for 22 yards and didn't get targeted at all in the passing game. Bigsby has been seeing a higher percentage of snaps this season but hasn't been able to produce many fantasy points when Travis Etienne Jr. is also active. The ground game in general was shut down in this contest and they had to play catch up almost the entire time. The Jaguars will take on another tough defense in the Minnesota Vikings in Week 10.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. only received five total touches in the 28-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He registered three carries for 24 yards and hauled in two of his three targets for six yards. The Eagles' defense not only shut down the run, but they jumped out to a big lead to start the game and the Jaguars had to play catch up for almost the entire time. Etienne saw five fewer carries than backfield mate Tank Bigsby but was more of a factor in the passing game. He'll look to bounce back in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence completed just 16 of 31 passes for 169 yards, zero touchdowns, and two interceptions during Sunday's Week 9 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He also took two sacks and rushed for eight yards. The 25-year-old has been a high-end fantasy QB2 this season, totaling 11 touchdowns and six interceptions. He should be avoided in single-quarterback leagues ahead of next week's matchup against a difficult Minnesota Vikings defense.
