RG Brandon Scherff  Knee  DNP

Wednesday notes:

• Kirk’s season is over after reportedly suffering a fractured collarbone. He had 84 catches for 1108 yards and 8 TDs in 2022. In 2023, he had 57 catches for 787 yards and 3 TDs, despite missing five games. He’ll eventually end up on IR this week.

• There have been conflicting reports on the severity of Thomas’ injury this week, so, we’ll see. He has been a star rookie receiver for the Jaguars this season, catching 33 passes for 573 yards (17.4 YPC) and 5 TDs in 8 games. His 573 receiving yards rank sixth in the NFL. Here are his 5 TD receptions this season:

The Jaguars’ receiving leaders: 

JAX receiving  Rec  Yards  YPC  TD 
 Brian Thomas 33  573  17.4 
 Christian Kirk 27  379  14.0 
 Gabe Davis 18  217  12.1 
 Brenton Strange 18  190  10.6 
 Evan Engram 20  178  8.9 

As you can see, Thomas and Kirk are the Jags’ leading receivers.

• Scherff and Cleveland are the Jags’ starting guards. Both came out of the game during Jacksonville’s Week 8 matchup against the Packers.

Other notable players on IR, PUP, suspension, etc.

S Tashaun Gipson (Suspended): Gipson is in his 13th NFL season, with 173 regular season games played and 165 starts. He got popped for PEDs this summer.

S Andrew Wingard (IR): Wingard is a role player for the Jags defense. He has not yet played in any games this season, but had his 21-day practice window opened last week.

WR/RS Devin Duvernay (IR): Duvernay is mainly a return specialist. With Duvernay out, Parker Washington has been the primary returner, and he took a punt to the house Week 7 against the Patriots.
