Jags TE Evan Engram out after thigh injury during warm-up

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Jaguars tight end Evan Engram suffered a hamstring injury during pregame warmups and will not play against the Cleveland Browns, the team announced.

Engram, who caught just one pass for 5 yards in last week’s loss at the Miami Dolphins, had not missed a game since signing with the Jaguars in March 2022. Last season, he caught 114 passes for 963 yards and four touchdowns.

The Jaguars will have only two active tight ends on Sunday: fourth-year player Luke Farrell (24 career catches) and second-year player Brenton Strange (five career catches), the team’s second-round pick in 2023.

Engram has 188 catches for 1,734 yards and eight touchdowns in 35 games with the Jaguars.
