Jaguars' Foyesade Oluokun: Full participant Thursday
Rotowire
Oluokun (hamstring) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Oluokun was a limited participant Wednesday, so the upgrade to full participation Thursday should mean the linebacker is good to go for Sunday's game against the Colts. Oluokun will likely return to the 100 percent snap share he's made a standard this season, having reached that figure in all but Sunday's Week 13 win over the Titans.
Oluokun was limited in practice Wednesday due to a hamstring injury.
Oluokun didn't play every defensive snap for the first time in eight games this past Sunday versus Tennessee, and the hamstring issue may explain why. How he fares in practice the rest of the week will likely determine whether the veteran linebacker enters the weekend with an injury designation. If Oluokun were to miss Sunday's matchup versus Indianapolis, Branson Combs or Jack Kiser could be in line for much more work on defense.

Jaguars' Foyesade Oluokun: Double-digit tackles in finale
Rotowire
Oluokun tallied 10 tackles (three solo) during Jacksonville's Week 18 loss to Indianapolis.
Oluokun posted double-digit tackles in the final two games of the season as he finished the campaign with 108 total stops, which ends a three-year run with at least 170 tackles. Part of the 27-year-old's production drop was due to a foot injury that sidelined him for four contests, but his 8.3 tackles per game was still his lowest figure since 2020. Oluokun inked a three-year, $30 million extension with the Jaguars last March and could be back amongst the leading tacklers in the league in 2025.

Rotowire
The Jaguars activated Oluokun (foot) from injured reserve Saturday in advance of Sunday's home matchup against the Packers, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Oluokun (foot) was a limited participant during Friday's practice and is questionable for Sunday's game against Green Bay.

Across the first two games of the regular season prior to his foot injury, Oluokun logged 19 tackles (11 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one pass breakup.
