K'Lavon Chaisson Fantasy

Jacksonville Jaguars pass-rusher K'Lavon Chaisson (knee) suffered a meniscus injury in the Week 5 loss to the Houston Texans, according to sources, and he is headed to Injured Reserve. The former first-round pick will now have to miss at least the next four games. With the 23-year-old out for the next month-plus, the Jaguars will ask De'Shaan Dixon to step up into a bigger role on the defensive line behind pass-rushers Josh Allen and Travon Walker. In four games played so far this year, Chaisson has just three tackles (two solo).

The Jacksonville Jaguars selected LSU linebacker K'Lavon Chaisson with the No. 20 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday. Chaisson played his best towards the end of the year in his final season in college. He can rush the passer, drop back into coverage and can play against the run, so he considers himself extremely versatile heading to the next level. Chaisson can play in a 3-4 or 4-3, but he's at his best when he has his hand on the ground and is rushing the passer. He was the second-best pass rusher in this class behind Ohio State's defensive end Chase Young, who went second overall to Washington. With Yannick Ngakoue potentially being traded out of town, Chaisson could help replace him up front.
