Overview
- Strange exited the Week 5 win over the Chiefs in the second quarter with a lower-body injury and did not return.
- Placement on IR requires a minimum four-game absence, with NFL Network reporting an expected recovery of about a month that is not season-ending.
- Before the injury, Strange led Jacksonville with 20 receptions for 204 yards through five games and carried a strong run-blocking reputation.
- Jacksonville is expected to lean on Johnny Mundt and Hunter Long at tight end, with Quintin Morris also in the mix.
- The Jaguars made corresponding practice-squad adjustments, signing a wide receiver and releasing Erik Ezukanma.
