Ventrell Miller Fantasy Overview

The Jaguars have already ruled LB Devin Lloyd out for Sunday's game against the Rams in London, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. He's dealing with a calf injury and won't even travel with the team. Ventrell Miller looks like the fill-in.

The Jaguars have opened the 21-day practice window for LB Foye Oluokun, who missed the past four games with plantar fasciitis. That allows Oluokun to return to practice this week while giving the Jags three weeks to decide whether to fully activate him.

Jaguars LB Devin Lloyd (knee) is inactive for today's game against the Texans. With LB Foye Oluokun already on IR for a foot injury, that leaves Ventrel Miller and Chad Muma as the top 2 LBs for the game. It's tough to know exactly how much playing time to expect for either reserve. Oluokun dipped to 80-85% as the corps leader over the first two weeks, with Miller and Muma rotating in more than the Nos. 3-4 LBs did over the past couple of seasons. Each guy is a low-level IDP option for Week 4, though, with upside beyond their spots in our rankings. S Darnell Savage (quad) is also inactive.

The Jaguars have placed LB Foye Oluokun on IR for plantar fasciitis. That means he'll miss at least the next four games. Chad Muma and Ventrell Miller will each see playing-time boosts in Oluokun's absence. We'll have to see how the whole LB picture plays out, though. Muma has worked as the No. 3 LB for the Jaguars the past two years, but Miller played one more snap in last week's loss at Buffalo. LB Devin Lloyd is also questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans because of a knee injury. If Lloyd can't go, then Muma and Miller should both be in for starter-level snaps. Cameron DaSilva of Jaguars Wire reports that Lloyd's "expected to be OK" for the Houston game, though.
