Laviska Shenault Jr.: A Swiss Army Knife
4 years agoLaviska Shenault Jr. enjoyed a breakout rookie year in 2020 in the midst of uneven quarterback play. Entering Shenault's sophomore campaign, the Jaguars have made a transformative improvement in quarterback play from Mike Glennon and Gardner Minshew to Trevor Lawrence. With subpar quarterback play, Shenault pulled in 58 catches for 600 yards and six touchdowns, while also adding 5.1 yards per carry on 18 attempts. Over the last five games of the season, Shenault recorded 25 receptions and four touchdowns as he gained additional shares of the offense. Gone from last year's receiver depth chart are Keelan Cole and Chris Conley. They've been replaced by an aging Marvin Jones and versatile rookie running back, Travis Etienne. Shenault is the de-facto WR2 opposite DJ Chark, and with the top pick Lawrence, and new head coach Urban Meyer, his trajectory is directed upwards. Look for Meyer to possibly use Shenault in a similar fashion to his usage of the versatile swiss army knife, Percy Harvin, while at Florida. Shenault is definitely someone to look at as your fantasy WR4 or WR5 with upside.
