Jaguars tight end Evan Engram will not practice to begin Week 15 as he nurses a shoulder injury suffered in Jacksonville’s 10-6 victory over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, head coach Doug Pederson revealed Wednesday.
Pederson expects Engram to be available for Jacksonville’s matchup with the New York Jets this Sunday.
“Evan’s dealing with the shoulder, obviously coming out of the game,” Pederson said. “So, won’t do anything today, we’ll rest him today and get him back. But anticipate him for the game on Sunday.”
Engram finished Week 14 with four receptions for 33 yards over 42 offensive snaps.
Engram has caught 47 passes for 365 yards and one touchdown in nine starts this season. He missed four games, Weeks 2-5, with a hamstring injury.
In 43 games since with the Jaguars during the 2022 offseason, Engram has caught 234 passes for 2,094 yards and nine touchdowns.
Jacksonville vs. New York is scheduled to kick off at 1 p.m. ET Sunday, at EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville, Fla.
