A Setback for Jacksonville Jaguars: Evan Engram Out with Hamstring Injury

Disheartening News from Jacksonville, Florida

In a recent development, Jacksonville Jaguars’ tight end Evan Engram will be absent from Monday’s face-off against the Buffalo Bills due to a hamstring injury. The injury occurred during the pre-game warmups on the previous Sunday, which led to his non-participation in the match against the Cleveland Browns.

The Impromptu Stand-In: Brenton Strange

Brenton Strange, a second-year player, had to step into Engram’s shoes against the Browns. Despite the sudden responsibility, Strange made the most of the opportunity by establishing new personal records with three catches and receiving 65 yards. He is expected to maintain the same position in the upcoming match against the Bills.

Evan Engram’s Solid Track Record

Engram, who managed a single 5-yard catch in the Jaguars’ season opener against Miami, has maintained a commendable attendance record since joining the team in March 2022. This incident marks his first time missing a game due to injury. Last season, he boasted impressive stats with 114 catches, 963 yards, and four touchdowns. Throughout his tenure with the Jaguars, Engram has made 188 catches, covering 1,734 yards, and has scored eight touchdowns in 35 games.
