Brenton Strange thriving with Thomas Jr. out; faces Colts' 11th-most single-high looks

Brenton Strange has been playing a larger role with WR Brian Thomas Jr. having effectively vanished from the Jacksonville offense. Over his last three games, Strange has 19 receptions on 23 targets for 207 yards and zero touchdowns, ranking as TE7 in PPR scoring from Week 4 to Week 6 without scoring a touchdown. Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence certainly doesn't mind throwing to tight ends; in 2023, Evan Engram had a 114-catch, 963-yard season while playing with Lawrence in Jacksonville. Strange has thrived against single-high safety coverage shells this season, averaging 0.30 targets per route run and 2.82 yards per route run vs. single-high coverage. In Week 8, he faces a Colts defense that, entering Week 7, had played single-high safety at the 11th-highest rate in the league.
