Mac Jones
QB - Jacksonville Jaguars
Week 12 Outlook
Availability
Mac Jones 17-of-29 pass attempts for 138 yards and one interception while also rushing twice for seven yards in the Jaguars' 52-6 loss to the Lions in Week 11.
Fantasy Impact
Jones was unable to find much success behind center, passing for less than 130 yards and throwing at least one interception in each of his two starts for the injured Trevor Lawrence. The quarterback may find himself back on the bench after Jacksonville's Week 12 bye.
The Jaguars will start QB Mac Jones against the Lions in Week 11.
Fantasy Impact
With the Jaguars’ bye week coming up in Week 12, the team will opt to give Trevor Lawrence another week to rest his injured left shoulder. Fantasy managers should find another option other than Jones against a tough Lions’ defense.
Mac Jones completed 14 of his 22 passes for 111 yards and two interceptions while adding five carries for eight yards and a touchdown while losing a fumble in a 12-7 loss to the Vikings in Week 10.
Fantasy Impact
Jones was making his first start of the season with Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) ruled out. The former Patriot didn't look sharp as he tossed two picks and took three sacks in the loss. Jones did account for the Jaguars' lone touchdown on a one-yard run in the first quarter. The Jaguars may be without Lawrence for the remainder of the season, which would put Jones in line to remain the starter heading into Week 11 against the Lions.
Mac Jones is expected to start for the Jaguars on Sunday against the Vikings.
Fantasy Impact
Trevor Lawrence is not expected to play due to a shoulder injury. Jones will be tough for fantasy managers to trust unless you are super desperate in a 2-QB or superflex league.
Jacksonville Jaguars QB Mac Jones is in line to start in Week 10 as Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) is considered day-to-day and “likely not to play” against the Minnesota Vikings.
Fantasy Impact
Jones was an offseason trade acquisition by Jacksonville, who brought the former New England Patriots QB back to his hometown. After an up-and-down career that seemingly ran its course in Foxborough, Mass., Jones has a chance to re-establish himself with his first start as a Jaguar. He has averaged 203.3 passing yards per game in his career while throwing for 46 touchdowns and 36 interceptions in 44 games and 42 starts.
