Dan Arnold News
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Dan Arnold was one of 10 players from his squad placed on the league's Reserve/COVID-19 list Monday. Arnold was joined by fellow tight ends Luke Farrell and Chris Manhertz, leaving the team extremely thin at the position outside of James O'Shaughnessy if the trio are unable to clear protocols in time for Sunday's matchup with the Patriots. Arnold (knee) has been designated to return from injured reserve, not having taken the field since Week 12 due to a sprained MCL. The fourth-year tight end enjoyed a strong spell of performances from Weeks 5-10, amassing at least 60 receiving yards in four of his five outings. His placement on the Reserve/COVID-19 list likely keeps him on the periphery of season-long appeal for Week 17, although his absence could bump O'Shaughnessy into a starting spot in deeper formats or DFS lineups.
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Dan Arnold (knee) was designated to return from the IR after battling through an MCL sprain. This starts the team's 21-day window to activate Arnold for game action, so there is no guarantee that he will suit up this weekend. Even if he does, James O'Shaughnessy is also active so the team will likely split snaps, which limits the impact of either one. Given how much the Jaguars' offense has struggled, neither player is a recommended fantasy option, even in a juicy matchup against the Jets. If Arnold doesn't play this week, O'Shaughnessy could be a DFS punt option but shouldn't be relied on in the fantasy playoffs.
Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer confirmed on Tuesday that the team placed tight end Dan Arnold (knee) on Injured Reserve with a sprained MCL. Arnold suffered the injury in the Week 12 loss to the Atlanta Falcons and will be out for four to six weeks. There's a good chance we may not see the 26-year-old back in 2021. He made his debut with Jacksonville in Week 4 after being acquired in a trade from the Carolina Panthers, and Arnold has caught 28 of his 41 targets for 324 yards and no touchdowns as the Jags primary pass-catching tight end. If you don't have the room to stash him in an IR spot in smaller leagues, Arnold can be sent to the waiver wire. James O'Shaughnessy and Chris Manhertz will see more playing time with Arnold sidelined. O'Shaughnessy should be the better TE2 target in deeper leagues.

Dan Arnold was traded to the Jacksonville Jaguars in September of last year, and he filled in nicely as a two-way tight end on his way to 35 grabs for 408 yards. He had four games with at least 10 PPR points, including a stretch of three straight games after the bye with at least four catches for 60 yards. Unfortunately, his season was derailed when he injured his knee in Week 12. To make matters worse, the Jaguars went out and signed the explosive, but disappointing, Evan Engram in free...
