Impact As Marrone acknowledges, a multi-faceted role wouldn't be anything new for Shenault, who lined up out wide, in the slot, at tight end and in the backfield during his three-year career at Colorado. The Jaguars' depth chart at receiver is somewhat unsettled beyond top option DJ Chark, so Shenault could parlay a solid showing in training camp and the preseason into a regular spot in three-receiver formations. Even if all of Chark, Dede Westbrook and Chris Conley enter the season ahead of him in the pecking order, Shenault's versatility could allow him to find reps in the backfield, as Jacksonville lacks an experienced change-of-pace option behind Leonard Fournette beyond the historically injury prone Chris Thompson. As a junior at Colorado in 2019, Shenault did most of his damage as a pass catcher (56 receptions for 764 yards and four touchdowns), though he was effective as a ball carrier (23 totes for 161 yards and two touchdowns) when his number was called.
