Laviska Shenault Jr. News
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. has impressed both head coach Doug Pederson and quarterback Trevor Lawrence during offseason workouts. "He looks a lot faster," Lawrence said. "He's just going to be that guy when you get the ball in his hands, he's going to make the play." Shenault has always looked good in non-padded practices, but he hasn't been able to translate it to the regular season yet. The former second-rounder caught 63 passes for 619 yards with no touchdowns and 10 drops last year. Even if Jacksonville gets more creative with how they use Shenault in 2022, running back Travis Etienne Jr. and tight end Evan Engram will take opportunities away. Shenault's improvement won't necessarily ensure him a spot as a starter ahead of Marvin Jones Jr., Zay Jones or Christian Kirk.
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. could help the team as a returner, according to head coach Doug Pederson. They've added Christian Kirk and Zay Jones, so Shenault could see less action as a wideout this upcoming season. That being said, Shenault is a candidate to see increased time as a returner in Jacksonville. Jamal Agnew (hip) is still rehabbing and is uncertain for the beginning of the season. It sounds like Shenault could be the new returner in 2022. That won't help his fantasy value, but at least he'll continue getting looks on the field. Shenault has shown promising upside during his first two seasons in the league.
The Kansas City Chiefs are inquiring about Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr., according to sources. The 23-year-old was a second-round pick by the Jaguars in 2020 and has plenty of fans throughout the league. "That kid's a baller. We loved him in the draft. Only a matter of time before he really pops," one head coach said. The Jaguars are expected to trade Shenault after signing Christian Kirk and Zay Jones at the start of free agency. He had 100 targets in 2021, but he was only able to reel in 63 of them for 619 yards and no touchdowns after scoring five times in his rookie season. Shenault would be a lot more intriguing from a fantasy perspective in Kansas City while helping to replace some of Tyreek Hill's production.
