Report: Jags LB Foyesade Oluokun (foot) out several weeks Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Foyesade Oluokun has plantar fasciitis, and the foot issue is expected to sideline him for several weeks but...

Expects to miss extended time Oluokun is expected to miss several weeks as he tends to plantar fasciitis, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Oluokun was forced out of Monday's 47-10 loss at Buffalo early with a foot injury, which it now turns out was relatively significant. For as long as he ends up being out, his absence will likely constitute a downgrade for the Jaguars' defense as a whole, especially against the run. And until he's ready to return, Ventrell Miller will be in line to see an increased workload.

Could miss Week 4 Oluokum (foot) is considered week-to-week after getting injured in Monday's loss to the Bills, John Shipley of SI.com reports.

Impact Oluokom's week-to-week timeline puts him in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Texans. More clarity about his status for the matchup will likely come later in the week. If he does miss time, Ventrell Miller will have to step up at outside linebacker.

Downgraded to out Oluokun was downgraded to out after exiting Monday's game against the Bills with a foot injury, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Impact The starting linebacker recorded three tackles (two solo) and a pass defensed before leaving the contest. Ventrell Miller is his backup.

Picks up sack vs. Browns Oluokun recorded eight tackles (three solo) including 1.0 sacks during Sunday's 18-13 loss versus Cleveland.

Impact Oluokun's tackle production slipped from the 11 he posted in Week 1, but he made up the difference by notching his first sack of the season. He could see a solid share of opportunities defending the run in Week 3 at Buffalo, which looks like it's trying to be more run-oriented this year than last.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Double-digit stops in loss Oluokun recorded 11 total tackles (eight solo) and a pass deflection in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Dolphins.

Impact Oluokun opened the year with an impressive performance, leading the team in stops. The linebacker has been amongst the league leaders in tackles each of the last three seasons, and he appears to be on track to hit that benchmark again in 2024.

Clear of hamstring injury Oluokun (hamstring) is not listed on Wednesday's injury report.

Impact Oluokun picked up a hamstring injury during preseason action mid-August, but he's fully healthy heading into a Week 1 matchup against the Dolphins on Sunday. The veteran linebacker hasn't missed a regular-season game in the past three years and is averaging 183 total tackles a campaign in that span, making him a premier IDP option as long as he's suiting up.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Nursing hamstring injury Oluokun did not participate in Monday's practice session due to hamstring tightness, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Impact Head coach Doug Pederson informed reporters Monday that Oluokon came out of Saturday's preseason win against the Chiefs with some tightness in the hamstring, though it appears to be a minor issue. Oluokon played seven snaps (six on defense, one on special teams) in Saturday's contest and did not record a tackle. The 2018 sixth-round pick is slated to start at outside linebacker opposite Chad Muma with Devin Lloyd manning the middle.

Totals 173 tackles Oluokun finished the season with 173 tackles (111 solo), 2.5 sacks, one interception and one forced fumble in 17 games last season.

Impact The 28-year-old was unable to top 180 tackles for the third straight season, but he still led the Jaguars and ranked fourth in the NFL. Oluokun is entering the final year of the three-year, $45 million pact he signed with Jacksonville in 2022, and he should again be a top IDP producer again during 2024.

FEBRUARY 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Double-digit tackles in loss Oluokun recorded 13 tackles (eight solo) in Monday's 34-31 overtime loss to the Bengals.

Impact As per usual, Oluokun was a very active man in Week 13, recording double-digit tackles for the second straight week and eighth time in 12 contests this season. The linebacker is now up to 131 takedowns, including 2.5 sacks, while also compiling five pass deflections, an interception, a force fumble and two fumble recoveries so far in 2023.

Productive in loss Oluokun tallied nine total tackles (six solo), including three tackles for loss and two sacks in Sunday's 34-3 loss to the 49ers.

Impact Oluokun fell one short of double-digit tackles for the first time in four weeks during Sunday's blowout loss, and he's been able to record 10 or more tackles in six of the Jaguars' nine games thus far. The Yale product was also able to get after the quarterback in Week 10, recording his first two sacks of the season. Expect Oluokun to continue racking up tackles and making big plays for Jacksonville's defense going forward.

NOVEMBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Leads team in tackles Week 8 Oluokun had 11 tackles (nine solo) and a forced fumble in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Steelers.

Impact It's the third game in a row that Oluokun has registered double-digit tackles and the sixth time this season he has hit that mark. He leads the team with 92 tackles -- 44 ahead of Devin Lloyd, who sits in second on the team, and ranks second in the NFL behind Zaire Franklin (102). Oluokun has played on every defensive snap for the Jaguars this year and will likely hit 100-plus tackles for the season. The Jaguars have a bye in Week 10 against the 49ers.

Scores first career TD on pick six Oluokon notched 14 tackles (nine solo) and two passes defensed, including an interception that he returned for a 24-yard touchdown, in Thursday's 31-24 win over the Saints.

Impact Oluokon caught a deflected ball and turned it back the other way, beating New Orleans' offense to the end zone for his first NFL touchdown. The 28-year-old linebacker also compiled a gaudy tackle total, but that's hardly unusual for Oluokon, who led the NFL in tackles each of the previous two seasons and holds the league lead again with 81 tackles (53 solo) in 2023, albeit with the rest of the league yet to play in Week 7.
