Foye Oluokun Foot Injury Challenges LB Corps

Jaguars LB Foye Oluokun left in the second quarter of Monday night's loss to the Bills with a foot injury. Initially listed as questionable to return, he was downgraded to out before the end of the game.

We're waiting on details of the injury and expected return timeline.

Jacksonville was getting blasted before halftime of that game, so the team had little reason to bring the starting MLB back. That the Jags bothered to downgrade Oluokun's status could signal a significant injury.

LBs Ventrell Miller and Chad Muma each saw elevated playing time for the game. They played matching 14% and 18% snap shares the first two weeks. Miller played 44% against the Bills, while Muma played 42%.

Devin Lloyd, interestingly, didn't appear to get a boost.

He has played 75%, 67%, and 66% of snaps across the first three games -- with declining snap totals each of the past two weeks.

Oluokun, in fact, was also down to 85% and 82% playing time the first two weeks. That's a striking change for a guy who played 98.5% and 99.8% of defensive snaps in his first two Jacksonville seasons.

If we can't even count on full playing time for a healthy Oluokun, it'll be more difficult to map the snap shares for his replacement crew.

Don't expect to find any Jaguars LB prominently displayed in our Week 4 rankings of Oluokun's out.
