Jaguars | Dede Westbrook could return this season
Jacksonville Jaguars WR Dede Westbrook (core) is a candidate to be activated from the Reserve/Injured list later in the season, in the opinion of ESPN.com’s Michael DiRocco.
Footballguys View: That was the plan when the team put him on Injured Reserve. They especially need him now with Allen Robinson (knee) done for the year. Westbrook is a speedy rookie who can get open in a hurry and is dangerous with the ball in his hands after the catch. He’s first eligible to return in Week 9.
Steelers | Anthony Chickillo on track to start
Pittsburgh Steelers LB Anthony Chickillo is expected to start at outside linebacker in Week 3 with LB T.J. Watt (groin) ruled out.
Jets | Austin Seferian-Jenkins may have bigger role
New York Jets TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins could receive a bigger role in the offense in Week 3 if TE Will Tye (illness) is not able to play.
Footballguys View: If you’re desperate at the TE position, then Seferian-Jenkins could be a consideration for you off the waiver wire as a streamer. The Jets are horrible, but they’re going to be playing from behind and will have to fill the air with footballs to stay in games. Perhaps a chunk of those targets will wind up aimed at Seferian-Jenkins. He’s always been physically gifted but has been a career disappointment in the pros due to injury and inconsistency.
