Jacksonville Jaguars DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Gabe Davis (shoulder) was already considered a longshot to play in Week 9, but he's been confirmed as inactive for their late afternoon contest. Brian Thomas Jr. (chest), on the other hand, was ruled as active and should see plenty of targets with Christian Kirk (collarbone) out for the rest of the season. Parker Washington will also see more opportunities as the second receiver in this game.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby (ankle) is officially active for the Week 9 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. His fellow running mate, Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring), is also active so the two of them should return to a timeshare in this game. With that being said, it could be a tough fantasy week for the backfield against an Eagles defense that allows the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing backfields.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (chest) was expected to play in Week 9 and the inactive list has confirmed that he will, in fact, suit up against the Philadelphia Eagles. The rookie pass-catcher has been a big part of this offense and is expected to take on a bit more of the target share with Christian Kirk (collarbone) out for the rest of the year and Gabe Davis (shoulder) ruled out. Thomas even draws a matchup in his favor as the Eagles are in the top 10 in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) has been deemed as active ahead of their late afternoon kickoff. The 25-year-old was expected to play in this one, so it's not a complete surprise, but at least he's been confirmed. Tank Bigsby (ankle) has also been ruled as active, so they'll go back to a timeshare in the backfield. It could be tough sledding though as the Philadelphia Eagles are one of the toughest teams against opposing backfields.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Gabe Davis (shoulder) appears to be a longshot to play in Week 9 versus the Philadelphia Eagles, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Davis picked up the injury last Sunday when he exited before commanding a target. Jacksonville is suddenly hurting at wide receiver with Christian Kirk (collarbone) done for the year and Davis temporarily sidelined. In their absences, Brian Thomas Jr. and Evan Engram should see large target shares while Parker Washington also earns extra opportunities.
