Double-digit tackles in finale Oluokun tallied 10 tackles (three solo) during Jacksonville's Week 18 loss to Indianapolis.

Impact Oluokun posted double-digit tackles in the final two games of the season as he finished the campaign with 108 total stops, which ends a three-year run with at least 170 tackles. Part of the 27-year-old's production drop was due to a foot injury that sidelined him for four contests, but his 8.3 tackles per game was still his lowest figure since 2020. Oluokun inked a three-year, $30 million extension with the Jaguars last March and could be back amongst the leading tacklers in the league in 2025.

Picks off pass in Week 10 Oluokun registered 11 tackles (six solo) and an interception Sunday in a loss to the Vikings.

Impact Oluokun finished second on Jacksonville in stops, notching double-digit tackles for the second time through six games this season. He also recorded his first pickoff of the campaign with a first-quarter interception of Sam Darnold.

Although his performance Sunday wasn't enough to get his team the win, it was a reminder of why he's been a regular IDP fixture over the past few seasons and why he'll remain one in Week 9 at Philadelphia.

Officially active Week 8 Oluokun (foot) will suit up Sunday versus Green Bay.

Impact Oluokun injured his foot Week 3 against Buffalo and missed Jacksonville's next four games while on injured reserve. He was activated Saturday after logging a trio of limited practices during the week. Now that he's back in action, Oluokun should return to his starting role and will immediately become a top IDP asset after recording over 170 tackles each of the past three campaigns.

Comes off IR The Jaguars activated Oluokun (foot) from injured reserve Saturday, in advance of Sunday's home matchup against the Packers, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Impact Oluokun remains questionable to play Sunday, but being activated Saturday is a necessary step if he is to return to action Week 8. The standout linebacker's absence has left a notable void in Jacksonville's defense over the four games he missed while on IR. As long as he's officially cleared to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Packers, Oluokun will be in position to immediately reprise his role as a premier IDP fantasy option.

OCTOBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Could return vs. Packers Oluokun (foot) was a limited participant during Friday's practice and is questionable for Sunday's game against Green Bay.

Impact Oluokun was placed on the Jaguars' IR after injuring his foot during Jacksonville's Week 3 loss to Buffalo. His 21-day window to return from injured reserve opened Tuesday, and the 2018 sixth-round pick was a limited participant in all three practices this week. Head coach Doug Pederson told reporters before Friday's practice that he's "optimistic [Oluokun will] be able to step in and play" Sunday, per John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site. Across the first two games of the regular season prior to his foot injury, Oluokun logged 19 tackles (11 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one pass breakup.

OCTOBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared to practice Jacksonville designated Oluokun (foot) for return to practice from its injured reserve list Tuesday.

Impact Oluokun has been out for the Jaguars' last four games nursing plantar fasciitis, but it now appears he could be on track to suit up again soon. From today, Jacksonville will have 21 days to activate him from its injured reserve list before it would have to put him on the shelf for the rest of the year.

Placed on IR with foot injury The Jaguars placed Oluokun (foot) on injured reserve Saturday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Oluokun was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis, which he sustained during the Jaguars' Week 3 loss to the Bills. He was already ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans, but Oluokun's move to IR will force him to miss at least the next four regular-season games. The earliest the 2018 sixth-round pick could return is Week 8 against the Packers on Oct. 27. With Oluokun sidelined, Ventrell Miller will slide into the starting role at outside linebacker opposite Chad Muma while Yasir Abdullah provides rotational depth.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Week 4 Oluokun (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans.

Impact Oluokun is dealing with plantar fasciitis, which kept him out of practice all week. The injury is severe enough that the 2018 sixth-round pick is expected to miss multiple games due to the injury, though it appears he will avoid going on injured reserve at least for the moment. Ventrell Miller saw extended playing time at outside linebacker in Week 3 against the Bills, and he will likely serve as the starter alongside Chad Muma moving forward for as long as Oluokun is sidelined.
