Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram could return from a hamstring injury to face the Chicago Bears on Sunday in London, coach Doug Pederson told reporters Monday.
Engram sustained the injury back in Week 1 during a 20-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins. He had one catch for 5 yards and hasn’t played since.
“He got himself into practice a little bit (last week),” Pederson said. “I would anticipate him doing more this week and seeing where he’s at at the end of the week. But I think the chances of him getting back in here this week are pretty good.”
In 17 games (15 starts) with Jacksonville last season, Engram, 30, had career highs in receptions (114) and receiving yards (963) while hauling in four touchdowns. He also earned his second career Pro Bowl selection.
The Jaguars picked up their first victory this past Sunday, beating the Indianapolis Colts 37-34 to improve to 1-4 on the season.
