Jacksonville's Christian Kirk (groin) not expected to go in Week 18

The Jacksonville Jaguars are not expected to have wide receiver Christian Kirk (groin) available for their Week 18 game against the Tennessee Titans.

What It Means:

Kirk was able to return to practice earlier this week despite undergoing surgery to reattach a muscle to the bone just a few weeks ago, but it seems like his return to the field will have to wait at least until the first round of the playoffs. Expect the Jaguars' passing game to continue running through Calvin Ridley, Evan Engram, and Zay Jones with Kirk sidelined.

Engram may play tight end, but has been a volume sponge in Kirk's absence and has caught the seventh-most passes in the NFL this season (104). He's projected for 8.3 fantasy points this week and has a $6,800 salary on FanDuel.
