44 Myles Jack MLB

Coach Doug Marrone said Thursday that Jack will line up at outside linebacker in 2020, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Marrone called outside linebacker "a more natural position for [Jack]," who is coming off back-to-back seasons playing on the inside. The arrival of Joe Schobert as a free agent now allows the 24-year-old to shift to strong-side linebacker, opposite Quincy Williams (hand), where his talents as a pass rusher stand to be maximized. Though the move could lessen Jack's tackle totals, he could see a boost in fantasy value for IDP leagues that place a premium on sack production.

Coach Doug Marrone said Wednesday that the Jaguars are considering deploying Jack (knee) at a new position in 2020, Hays Carlyon of 1010 AM WJXL Jacksonville reports.

Jack began his NFL career shifting regularly between the strong-side and middle linebacker positions, but he's now coming off back-to-back seasons playing purely on the inside. The 24-year-old, who ended the 2019 season on injured reserve, struggled when tasked with containing the run, as did Jacksonville's entire linebacker corps. With that in mind, Jacksonville appears set to spend the offseason experimenting with different positional groupings. A shift to either the weak or strong side could result in a hit to Jack's tackle totals, and therefore to his IDP value.

Jack (knee) has been placed on IR by the Jaguars.

In a corresponding move, the Jaguars promoted fellow linebacker Joe Giles-Harris from their practice squad to the team's active roster. With Jack out for the season, Donald Payne (ankle) takes over as the Jacksonville's starting middle linebacker.

Jack (knee) is line to be placed on IR, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Per the report, the move is slated to take place later Thursday, with Jack thus finishing the 2019 season with 66 tackles and a pick in 11 games. In his absence down the stretch, look for Donald Payne (ankle) to work as the Jaguars' starting middle linebacker.

Jack (knee) isn't expected to practice Wednesday, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

Jack finished last practice week as a limited participant but ended up being inactive versus the Buccaneers. The 24-year-old linebacker is starting the week in an unfavorable fashion, but he still has two more days to get back onto the practice field and shake his injury for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers. If he's unable to do so, Donald Payne is expected to start at middle linebacker again.

Jack (knee) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

Jack was considered questionable for Sunday's contest but won't be able to play due to the knee injury. Donald Payne will receive the start at middle linebacker in his absence.

Jack (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's tilt against the Buccaneers.

Jack sat out practice to begin the week, but he managed to upgrade to a limited session Friday. He's averaged seven tackles over the last seven contests, so if Jack were forced to miss any time it would be a notable blow to the Jaguars' run defense.

Jack (knee) didn't participate at Wednesday's practice.

Jack apparently sustained the injury during Sunday's loss to the Titans, as he was unable to play every defensive snap for the first time since Week 3. The 24-year-old's availability should be clarified when the Jaguars release their official injury report Friday.

Jack was listed on Tuesday's injury report with a knee injury.

Jack likely suffered this injury during this past Sunday's loss to the Titans, as he failed to play every defensive snap for the first time since Week 3. We'll have a better feel for the severity of Jack's injury when the Jaguars' complete their first official practice Wednesday. It's worth monitoring the fourth-year linebacker's status, since Jack has averaged seven tackles over the last seven games.

Jack had seven tackles (six solo) and one tackle for a loss in Sunday's 42-20 loss to the Titans.

Jack once again led the defense in tackles, but the Jaguars were unable to slow down the Titans all game. The 24-year-old had a slow start to the season and averaged only 5.4 tackles through Week 8, but he's averaging 7.7 tackles over his last three games.

Jack tallied nine tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's loss to the Colts.

The Colts ran the ball like crazy in this outing, totaling 36 rushes. The hefty ground game allowed Jack to tie his season high for tackles, and he led the Jaguars in the category. The fourth-year pro now has 59 stops through 10 games, and a second straight triple-digit tackling season is within reach.

Jack had seven tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Texans.

The 24-year-old was expected to take a step up in IDP production in 2019 with tackle machine Telvin Smith stepping away from football, but Jack actually has fewer tackles through nine games this season (50 tackles) than he did at the same point in 2018 (55 tackles). Jack has played every defensive snap since Week 4 but needs an uptick in production coming out of the bye week to reach his IDP potential.

Jack had eight tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 13-6 loss to the Saints.

Jack had solid production for the second straight week and has now played every defensive snap over the last three games. The 24-year-old appears to be trending toward the IDP production he was expected to provide at the start of the season.

Jack had nine tackles (three solo) and two passes defensed in Sunday's loss to the Panthers.

The nine tackles set a season high for the 24-year-old, who's been off to a slow start in 2019. Jack figured to be a significant IDP option with leading tackler Telvin Smith stepping away from football this season, but he has only 26 tackles (14 solo) and a half-sack through five games, though he had two games shortened by an ejection and a concussion.

Jack (concussion) has been cleared to play in Sunday's matchup against the Broncos.

Jack logged full practices all week, and he now looks ready to go barring any setbacks. He sustained a concussion in last Thursday's victory over the Colts. If he were to suffer any type of setback, Najee Goode would be in line to replace him at middle linebacker.

Jack (concussion) was a full practice participant Wednesday but has yet to fully clear the concussion protocol.

Jack sustained the concussion during last Thursday's win over the Titans, but he appears to be on track to be ready for Week 4. The 24-year-old should be good to go for Sunday's game at Denver, assuming he clears the final stages of the concussion protocol within the next couple days.

Jack is in the league's concussion protocol Friday, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Jack exited Thursday's 20-7 win over the Titans due to a concussion and has yet to return to full health. He'll need to fully clear the league's protocol for head injuries before retaking the field.

Jack has been ruled out of Thursday's game against the Titans with a concussion, Tad Dickman of the Jaguars' official site reports.

Jack took a knee to the head while tackling Titans running back Derrick Henry in the third quarter of Thursday's game and looked disoriented coming off the field. He will now need to clear the league's concussion protocol before returning to action, with Najee Goode in line to take over for the Jaguars at middle linebacker in the meantime.

Jack is being evaluated for a concussion after leaving Thursday's game against the Titans, Tad Dickman of the Jaguars' official site reports.

Jack had two solo tackles, including one tackle for loss, prior to exiting. If he is unable to return to Thursday's game, Najee Goode is slated to fill in at middle linebacker.

Jack registered seven tackles (four solo) and a half-sack in Sunday's loss to the Texans.

Jack was thrown out of the season opener, so a performance like this should get him back in the team's good graces. The fourth-year pro still has a good shot to match last year's 107-tackle season. He'll look to keep it up in Week 3 versus the divisional-rival Titans.
