Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: Questionable to return Week 17
Rotowire
Agnew hurt his ankle in the first half of Sunday's game against Carolina and is questionable to return, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Agnew was hurt after being tackled on a 48-yard reception late in the second quarter. He limped off the field with trainers and immediately headed into the medical tent. If Agnew is unable to return to the matchup, the Jaguars would need to replace him not only on offense but also on special teams, as he's been working as the team's primary kick and punt returner.

Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: Cleared to practice
Rotowire
Agnew (shoulder) was designated for return from injured reserve Wednesday.
Agnew has spent the minimum of four weeks on IR and could return to action as soon as Sunday against the Ravens. However, the Jaguars will have a 21-day window to evaluate him in practice before he would need to be added to the 53-man roster or left on IR for the remainder of the season.

Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: Lands on IR
Rotowire
Jacksonville placed Agnew (shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday.
Agnew hurt his shoulder in this past Sunday's loss to San Francisco, and his move to IR means he'll need to sit out at least four games. The veteran wideout has worked as the Jaguars' primary kick and punt returner this season while also tallying nine catches on 12 targets for 90 yards as a receiver. Parker Washington (knee) was activated from IR in a corresponding move and could take Washington's place as both a return man and depth wideout.

Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: Set to play in London
Rotowire
Agnew (quadricep) is active for Sunday's game against the Bills in London.
The quad injury kept Agnew from playing in the Jaguars' first game in London in Week 4 versus Atlanta, but he'll be back in action Sunday after turning in a trio of limited practices this week. In addition to Agnew, the Jaguars are getting Zay Jones (knee) back from a two-game absence, so the team's receiving corps will have all of its key contributors available Sunday. Agnew will likely serve as Jacksonville's No. 4 wideout and top return man.

Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: Limited in Wednesday's practice
Rotowire
Agnew (quadricep) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports.
Agnew missed the Week 4 win over the Falcons in London due to the quad injury, but it's encouraging to see him on the practice field heading into another London clash this Sunday, with Jacksonville facing Buffalo in Week 5. According to Mark Long of the Associated Press, head coach Doug Pederson said Monday that he's expecting Agnew to play this weekend, and the receiver's ability to practice in any capacity Wednesday would certainly be a step toward achieving that goal. Zay Jones (knee) was also a limited participant Wednesday after missing the previous two games, so if he's back in action Sunday, Agnew would likely be relegated to the No. 4 receiver role.

Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: Considered game-time call
Rotowire
Coach Doug Pederson said Friday that Agnew (quadriceps) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's matchup against Atlanta in London, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
While the Jaguars want to wait and see how Agnew feels ahead of kickoff, Pederson said he's optimistic the speedster will play. If Agnew is available, he could see increased snaps on offense for a second straight week due to Zay Jones (knee) being ruled out again. Agnew secured four of five targets for 49 yards during last week's loss to the Texans, temporarily putting him on the map as a deep-league option and cheap DFS play ahead of the 9:30 a.m. ET kickoff this Sunday.

Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: One catch versus KC
Rotowire
Agnew caught his lone target for five yards and returned two punts for five yards during Sunday's 17-9 loss to the Chiefs.
The veteran return man played 24 offensive snaps with Zay Jones leaving the game due a knee issue, but Jones eventually returned while Agnew was unable to take advantage of the absence. Agnew is likely to continue working as the Jags' No. 4 wideout as long as Jones, Christian Kirk and Calvin Ridley are available.

Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: Deemed questionable for Saturday
Rotowire
Agnew (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Saturday's wild-card game against the Chargers.
Agnew popped up on Tuesday's injury report with a shoulder injury that kept him limited for all three practices heading into Saturday's matchup. The 27-year-old wideout has had a consistent, albeit limited, role in the Jaguars' passing game this season, recording 23 receptions (on 30 targets) for 187 yards and three touchdowns. The biggest effect of his potential absence would be felt on special teams, as Agnew has served as the primary returner on both kickoffs and punts this season. Should he sit out, then running back JaMycal Hasty and/or top wideout Christian Kirk will likely fill in on special teams.

Rotowire
Agnew (shoulder) was a limited participant during the Jaguars' practice Tuesday.

However, it appears he came away from this contest with a shoulder injury, keeping him limited during Jacksonville's first practice ahead of this Saturday's wild-card matchup versus the Chargers.

The 27-year-old will have two more opportunities to increase his practice activity heading to the playoffs.
