Chiefs show momentum with Worthy back, lifting KC’s offense and EPA after a rough early stretch. Jaguars counter with a defense elite in takeaways and a home-field edge that keeps them square in the fantasy spotlight. The game hinges on turnover battles and which unit can sustain drive efficiency while limiting mistakes. Brian Thomas Jr. remains under 56.5 receiving yards, presenting a potential fade play if Jacksonville leans on other weapons.

Travon Walker returned to Jaguars practice Saturday with a cast on his left hand, eyeing a Week 5 showdown with the Chiefs after a wrist procedure. Jacksonville lists him questionable, with coach Liam Coen calling his status day-to-day. Walker has 13 pressures and two sacks through three games and remains a key run defender as KC tests the defense. If active, the edge rush could swing a high-stakes game; if not, rotation and plan adjustments will be critical for fantasy and betting angles.

His availability shapes how Jacksonville pressures Mahomes and how fantasy managers weigh Jaguars’ defense and Walker’s own upside. Coen’s cautious approach underscores the medical timetable’s weight, meaning pregame updates will matter for lineups and prop bets in Week 5.

Jaguars head into Monday Night Football with a sharpened focus on clean execution and balance, aiming to convert more drives into points. Coen emphasizes early-game consistency after two close wins and a string of costly special-teams plays that kept scores tight. Lawrence takes responsibility for imperfect throws and pledges to hit bigger downfield targets, setting the stage for a more dangerous air attack against KC.

The Chiefs test looms large, and Jacksonville must translate practice work into sustained efficiency. The plan centers on tightening the passing game without sacrificing the solid run game, and erasing the mistakes that have kept weeks closer than they should be.

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.
