Trevor Lawrence - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is a risky Week 15 option to say the least. Lawrence's struggles have been well-chronicled this season, as he's averaged just 11.5 fantasy points per game, but it is still possible that he could finish strong with incompetent head coach Urban Meyer out of the way after his firing earlier […]

James Robinson To Be Given Starter’s Workload

Jacksonville Jaguars interim head coach Darrell Bevell said that running back James Robinson "is our starting running back and will be played as such."

Jaguars Fire Head Coach Urban Meyer

The Jacksonville Jaguars have fired head coach Urban Meyer, ending his tenure with the team after less than a year. Meyer lasted 13 games with Jacksonville and lost more games in 2021 than he did with seven seasons at Ohio State. The constant drama led to his departure, starting in Week 4 when he decided […]

Kerryon Johnson Works Out For Jaguars

The Jacksonville Jaguars worked out running back Kerryon Johnson on Wednesday. Veteran back Carlos Hyde (concussion) sat out of Wednesday's practice. That means, Dare Ogunbowale is the backup right now for Week 15. On paper, it makes sense for the Jaguars to attempt to find more depth behind James Robinson. However, Johnson hasn't played all […]

James Robinson Limited, Carlos Hyde Misses Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (heel, knee) continued to be limited to open the practice week on Wednesday, while Carlos Hyde (concussion) didn't practice at all. Robinson continues to play through heel and knee injuries, and he should be fine to suit up this Sunday against the Houston Texans. The 23-year-old had just six […]

Snap counts are not the be-all-end-all for fantasy production, but they paint a clear picture with the necessary context. Every snap is an opportunity for a player to make his presence felt and if their snaps go up or down, you get an idea of what the team thinks of their skill set. A running […]

Only six teams were able to score more than 30 points on offense in Week 14. Additionally, just five games surpassed 50 total points this week. Quarterbacks have struggled to put […]
