The Jacksonville Jaguars aren’t quite out of the playoff race for the 2024 NFL season as they picked up a crucial win against the New England Patriots in London during Week 7.
The Jaguars have been a disjointed bunch on both sides of the ball thus far but looked competent against a rebuilding Patriots team.
Though defeating a bad team isn’t very impressive, Jacksonville won’t complain about getting a win considering the way its season has gone.
Injuries have played a large part in the lack of success as the Jaguars have been without multiple key pieces both on offense and defense.
Ahead of their Week 8 clash against the Green Bay Packers, the Jaguars announced a series of roster moves.
“Activated LB Foyesade Oluokun from the Reserve/Injured; Designated to Return list. Elevated RB Jake Funk and DE Joe Gaziano to the active roster for tomorrow’s game via standard elevation. Downgraded S Andrew Wingard from questionable to out. OL Cam Robinson has cleared concussion protocol and has no game status for tomorrow’s game,” the team posted on X.

Oluokun’s return is the biggest news as the standout linebacker is arguably their best defender.
Meanwhile, Funk’s elevation to the roster signals that they could be without running back Travis Etienne, who is questionable with a hamstring injury.
It is good to see Robinson will be available after working his way through the league’s concussion protocol.
Jacksonville will have some key players back, but Green Bay will be a difficult challenge in every phase of the game.
