Week 5 Monday Night Football features Kansas City visiting Jacksonville in a likely high-scoring showdown (Total 45.5, KC -3.5). Xavier Worthy returns to a clearer target role for Kansas City with Rashee Rice suspended, making him a solid WR2 option as the Chiefs lean on Mahomes, Kelce, and Etienne remains a steady RB2 for Jacksonville.

Key decision points center on whether Brenton Strange can sustain TE2 value against KC, how Brian Thomas Jr. grades out vs Trent McDuffie, and if Worthy edges out Thomas in fantasy lines. KC’s defense and Butker look like safe plays, while Hunter is usually a sit. Build around the obvious stars and temper expectations for some ancillary pieces in Week 5.

Jacksonville's Week 5 injury report centers on edge pressure and line depth. Travon Walker (wrist) and Yasir Abdullah (hamstring) did not practice, with Walker listed day-to-day after a specialist visit. The team plans smart reps and relies on Edoga and Van Lanen to stabilize the line while Anton Harrison continues to progress. Several role players are limited, including Dyami Brown, Ezra Cleveland, Bhayshul Tuten, Wyatt Milum, Eric Murray, and others, shaping a flexible game plan.

Jacksonville elevates Quintin Morris and Austin Trammell from the practice squad for Week 4 against the San Francisco 49ers, marking Morris’ third elevation of the season and giving Trammell his first NFL game-day shot. Morris remains a core special-teams piece, while Trammell could serve as the newer WR depth option with Dyami Brown dealing with a shoulder issue. Yasir Abdullah’s absence also nudges the defense and special teams roles in Morris’ direction, and Tim Patrick’s trade adds another layer to the WR picture.

Brown’s injury status and Patrick’s arrival shape immediate flex considerations for fantasy managers. Morris’ limited offensive usage aside, his continued elevation opportunities this season hinge on roster rules, while Trammell’s active status provides a speculative DFS and dynasty play with upside should the Jaguars lean into younger WR reps against a tough 49ers secondary.

Jacksonville’s Week 4 injury update centers on Dyami Brown’s shoulder. If Brown suits up, he could anchor the Jaguars’ aerial attack and unlock room for other receivers; if not, the target distribution shifts to the depth chart and the run game becomes more critical.

With Bhayshul Tuten, Brian Thomas Jr., Ezra Cleveland, and Patrick Mekari cleared, Jacksonville’s protection and backfield depth look solid. Coen stressed practice tempo and confidence in the unit as they prepare for Sunday against San Francisco, focusing on execution and receiver development for a tough matchup.
