Bills are legitimate Super Bowl contenders, and what else we learned in Week 8
Christian Kirk - Out for year with collarbone injury Kirk fractured his collarbone in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Packers and will miss the remainder of the season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Kirk had his arm in a sling after the game following an exit due to what was originally termed a shoulder injury. He will finish the 2024 season with 27 catches for 379 yards and one touchdown on 47 targets in eight games. More opportunities will likely open up for Parker Washington in a Jacksonville wide receiver room that also saw Brian Thomas (chest) and Gabe Davis (shoulder) exit against the Packers.

Christian Kirk - Out for season with collarbone injury Kirk fractured his collarbone in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Packers and will miss the remainder of the season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Kirk had his left arm in a sling after the game after exiting in the second half with what the Jaguars originally termed a shoulder injury, but it turned out to be a fractured collarbone. He will finish the 2024 season with 27 catches for 379 yards and one touchdown on 47 targets in eight games. More opportunities will likely open up for Parker Washington in a Jacksonville wide receiver room that also saw Brian Thomas (chest) and Gabe Davis (shoulder) made early exits in Week 8.
OCTOBER 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Brenton Strange - Cashes in all five targets Sunday Strange corralled all five of his targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Packers.
Impact Strange finished with the most receptions for the Jaguars on Sunday, but it was fellow tight end Evan Engram who produced the better fantasy line (4-36-1). Strange has provided low-end fantasy value as a sophomore and should be treated as such heading into next Sunday's road tilt against the Eagles.

Evan Engram - Catches first TD of 2024 Engram caught four of five targets for 36 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Packers.
Impact Engram cashed in his first touchdown of the season in the second half of a narrow loss to Green Bay. The athletic tight end had participated in just three games prior to Sunday's score, marking a good time for fantasy managers in need of a tight end to pick up the veteran. Engram carries value into a Week 9 matchup against the Eagles next Sunday.

Christian Kirk - Arm in sling after game Kirk's left arm was in a sling after Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Packers, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
Impact After exiting with a shoulder injury, the wideout was subsequently ruled out for the remainder of the contest, and given DiRocco's report, Kirk's status for next weekend's game against the Eagles is cloudy. Fellow WRs Brian Thomas (chest) and Gabe Davis (shoulder) also were injured versus Green Bay, with the trio's status now worth tracking closely in the coming days.

Tank Bigsby - Gains 86 yards on 20 touches Bigsby rushed 18 times for 78 yards while catching two of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 30-27 loss to Green Bay.
Impact Bigsby served as the Jaguars' top back after Travis Etienne (hamstring) was deemed inactive prior to Sunday's kickoff. The 23-year-old Bigsby churned out a decent fantasy performance off of 20 touches, which bodes well for his already rising value heading into Week 9. Bigsby should remains a part of Jacksonville's offense heading into next Sunday's tilt against Philadelphia.

The 23-year-old Bigsby churned out a decent fantasy performance off of 20 touches, which bodes well for his already rising value heading into Week 9. Bigsby should remain a significant part of Jacksonville's offense heading into next Sunday's tilt against Philadelphia, irrespective of Etienne's status for that contest.

Trevor Lawrence - Scores thrice Sunday Lawrence completed 21 of 32 pass attempts for 308 yards, two touchdowns and one interception while rushing four times for 10 yards and a third touchdown in Sunday's 30-27 loss to G...
Impact Lawrence recorded his first game with three touchdowns this season, but it also came at the cost of his first two-turnover contest. The 2021 first overall pick has quietly been solid through seven weeks, producing an 11:4 TD:INT ratio for a flailing Jaguars squad. Lawrence will always intrigue with his physical tools and upside, but he should be considered a mid-tier fantasy option heading into a Week 8 matchup against the Eagles.

The 2021 first overall pick has quietly been solid through seven weeks, producing an 11:4 TD:INT ratio for a flailing Jaguars squad. Lawrence will always intrigue with his physical tools and upside, but he should be considered a mid-tier fantasy option at best heading into a Week 9 matchup against the Eagles, especially with all three of his starting wide receivers suffering an injury in Sunday's loss.

With Love watching from the sideline, the Packers beat the Jaguars 30-27 for 4th straight win

Backup Malik Willis completed a 51-yard pass to Jayden Reed that set up Brandon McManus’ second winning kick in as many weeks, a 24-yarder that lifted the Green Bay Packers to a 30...

Ezra Cleveland - Exits game with ankle injury Cleveland (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Green Bay, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Impact Cooper Hodges will come in at left guard for as long as Cleveland is sidelined.
OCTOBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Christian Kirk - Leaves early with shoulder injury Kirk suffered an injury to his left shoulder with 13:24 remaining in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Packers and has been ruled out for the remainder of the contest...
Impact Jacksonville had its top three receivers leave the Week 8 contest early, though Brian Thomas (chest) and Gabe Davis (shoulder) were listed as questionable to return after suffering their respective injuries. The team didn't waste any time ruling out Kirk, who immediately headed to the locker room after landing hard on his left arm while attempting to reel in a deep target from quarterback Trevor Lawrence on 3rd-and-11. The Jaguars will likely provide an update on Kirk's condition after the game concludes, but for now, the wideout's status for a Week 9 matchup with the Eagles is in question.
OCTOBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Brian Thomas Jr. - Leaves Sunday's game Thomas exited Sunday's game against the Packers after sustaining a chest injury.
Impact Prior to leaving the game, Thomas caught three of his four targets for 60 yards and a TD. With Gabe Davis dealing with a shoulder issue, Christian Kirk, Parker Washington and Tim Jones are available to handle the Jaguars' WR duties against Green Bay.

Brandon Scherff - Returns to Sunday's game Scherff (knee) has returned to Sunday's game against the Packers, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Scherff exited late in the first half of Sunday's game due to a knee injury, but the 2015 first-round pick is back on the field for the second half and will reclaim his spot at right guard.
OCTOBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Brandon Scherff - Suffers knee injury Scherff (knee) is questionable to return to Jacksonville's matchup Sunday versus Green Bay.
Impact Scherff suffered a knee injury late in the first half leaving his status for the remainder of Sunday's matchup up in the air. Cooper Hodges is now in at right guard for the Jaguars and will remain there if Scherff is unable to return.
OCTOBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Gabe Davis - Hurts shoulder Sunday Davis was forced out of Sunday's game against the Packers with a shoulder injury.
Impact Prior to his exit, Davis hadn't caught a pass in the contest. In his absence, Christian Kirk and Brian Thomas are available to pace the Jaguars' Week 8 wideout corps.
OCTOBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Ronald Darby - Hurts hip against Green Bay Darby injured his hip against the Packers in Sunday's Week 8 matchup and is questionable to return, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.
Impact Darby's injury occurred in the first quarter, and he subsequently consulted with trainers on the side of the field. The veteran cornerback has been a key component of the Jaguars' secondary this season, logging at least 70 percent of the defensive snaps in each of the team's first seven contests. Montaric Brown and/or Deantre Prince could absorb Darby's snaps Sunday if he's unable to return.
OCTOBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Maason Smith - Will be sidelined Week 8 Smith (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Packers.
Impact Smith hurt his ankle during practice this week, per Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union. The rookie defensive tackle notched his first career sack and logged a season-high 49 percent of the Jaguars' defensive snaps against Chicago in Week 6, so his injury comes as he was building some momentum. Jordan Jefferson could see more work with Smith sidelined.
OCTOBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Esezi Otomewo - Will not suit up Week 8 Otomewo (calf) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against Green Bay.
Impact A calf injury held Otomewo to a trio of limited practices this week, and he won't be able to play against the Packers. The defensive lineman has seen his role fluctuate throughout the campaign, and his best game came in Week 6 against Chicago when he notched a half-sack and played a season-high 46 percent of Jacksonville's defensive snaps.

Foyesade Oluokun - 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.
