Laviska Shenault Jr. - Leads team in receptions Shenault caught seven of nine passes for 50 yards and had one carry for nine yards during Sunday's 37-21 loss at Houston.
Impact Shenault was mostly involved in the underneath passing game, with his longest reception coming in at 14 yards. The 22-year-old showed a strong rapport with Trevor Lawrence, though DJ Chark and Marvin Jones clearly were the favorite downfield options for the rookie quarterback. Shenault should be consistently involved in the offense as somewhat of a safety valve, but he may need to rely on YAC in order to deliver significantly more receiving production.

Carlos Hyde - Totals 58 scrimmage yards Hyde rushed nine times for 44 yards and caught both his targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 37-21 loss to the Texans.
Impact Hyde led Jacksonville's backfield with 11 touches Sunday, though only three of those came in the first half. James Robinson started at tailback but received only five carries as the Jaguars trailed from the start and were losing 27-7 heading into halftime. Hyde played only 34 percent of the offensive snaps and shouldn't be expected to see more playing time than that most weeks if Robinson remains healthy.

Vincent Taylor - Slated to miss extended time Taylor (ankle) will undergo surgery that could keep him sidelined for 6-to-8 weeks, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
Impact Per the report, Taylor will be placed on injured reserve after he was carted off the field in Sunday's season opener against the Jaguars. While the 27-year-old will miss a significant portion of the year, it doesn't appear as though he's dealing with a season-ending injury. DeMarcus Walker could step into a starting role while Taylor is sidelined.
SEPTEMBER 13, 2021 ROTOWIRE
Danny Amendola - Competition coming With Anthony Miller expected to be activated Week 2, per Aaron Reiss of The Athletics, Amendola will have competition for snaps in the slot.
Impact Miller was inactive for Week 1 in what essentially was a coach's decision but likely due to the team being cautious after he suffered a shoulder injury during preseason. Amendola came up big for Houston six days after signing with the club. In just 17 snaps, he snagged all five targets and scored a touchdown. Miller, who spent all training camp with the Texans and presumably has a better grasp of the playbook than Amendola, could steal opportunities from his fellow wideout in Week 2 at Cleveland.
