Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram will miss the remainder of the season due to surgery for a torn labrum in his left shoulder. Head coach Doug Pederson confirmed the news after an MRI revealed the severity of the injury, which occurred during a recent game against the Tennessee Titans.
Engram's season was already impacted by a hamstring injury that caused him to miss four games. He concludes his third year with the Jaguars with 47 receptions for 365 yards and one touchdown, a stark decline from his record-setting performance last season.
With Engram sidelined, second-year tight end Brenton Strange is expected to take on a larger role in the offense. Engram is the fourth offensive starter lost for the season, joining Christian Kirk, Gabe Davis, and Trevor Lawrence, collectively missing 31 games.
