Laviska Shenault Jr. - Fantasy Football Rookie Spotlight

The Jacksonville Jaguars likely do not have high expectations about advancing far in 2020.  If anything, they should be considered a rebuilding team with a stripped-down defense, young QB in Gardner Minshew II, and a running back with an uncertain future in Leonard Fournette. However, they did draft a wide receiver in Laviska Shenault Jr. […]

A.J. Dillon - Fantasy Football Rookie Spotlight
