Secures three receptions Austin caught three of five targets for 17 yards during Sunday's 20-0 loss at Tennessee.
Impact Austin saw his most playing time since Week 8 (26 offensive snaps) and tied a season high with five targets, but he was unable to turn those looks into anything notable. The journeyman wideout has 14 receptions for 132 yards and one touchdown in 10 games this season.

Scores first TD since 2019 Austin caught both his targets for 21 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Falcons.
Impact Austin reached the end zone for the first time since 2019 on a seven-yard reception during the third quarter, which was Jacksonville's only touchdown of the contest. The 31-year-old is entrenched as the team's No. 4 wideout and played only 13 of 73 offensive snaps Sunday, so he doesn't have much fantasy appeal in his current role.

Available for Week 12 Austin (shoulder) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Falcons, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Impact Austin progressed steadily throughout the week, starting as a non-participant Wednesday and finishing as a full participantFriday. With Jamal Agnew (hip) on injured reserve, Austin and Laquon Treadwell could rotate in the No. 3 receiver spot.

Does not practice Wednesday Austin (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant at practice Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Impact Austin is potentially poised for a larger role with Jamal Agnew (hip) sustaining a season-ending injury. However, if he is unable to go this weekend against the Falcons, that will have to wait. Still firmly behind Marvin Jones, Laviska Shenault and likely Laquon Treadwell, Austin's fantasy impact in that context figures to be marginal. If he does miss Sunday's contest, there could be added opportunity for Jaydon Mickens, who was signed off the Buccaneers' practice squad Tuesday.

Catches one pass Austin caught one of two targets for 18 yards and lost a fumble during Sunday's 30-10 loss to the 49ers.
Impact Jamal Agnew (hip) played 10 offensive snaps before going down with a season-ending injury, but Austin ended up playing just 12 snaps in the contest. Laquon Treadwell saw a bump in playing time and appears poised to step into the No. 3 role with Agnew out. Austin could see more opportunities going forward but remains fantasy irrelevant.

One catch Week 8 Austin caught one of three targets for five yards during Sunday's 31-7 loss to the Seahawks.
Impact The 31-year-old again worked as the No. 4 wideout behind Marvin Jones, Laviska Shenault and Jamal Agnew. Austin only has seven receptions for 67 yards this season and isn't fantasy relevant in his current role.

No receptions Week 6 Austin failed to catch his lone target during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Dolphins.
Impact Austin operated as Jacksonville's No. 4 wideout and played 17 offensive snaps, and he had minimal involvement in the aerial attack. Jamal Agnew caught five passes for 78 yards and appears to have established himself as the No. 3 receiver, while Marvin Jones and Laviska Shenault -- who were both targeted 10 times Sunday -- remain the top options for QB Trevor Lawrence.

Secures five receptions Austin caught all five of his targets for 54 yards during Sunday's 37-19 loss to Tennessee.
Impact Austin ranked fourth among Jacksonville's wideouts with 24 offensive snaps, but he was one of only three pass catchers to secure multiple receptions. It was an unusual afternoon for the Jaguars' aerial attack, as top wide receivers Marvin Jones and Laviska Shenault combined for only two receptions for 83 yards. Those two typically will be much more involved, so it's difficult to see Austin replicating that production while playing so few snaps.

Fills in for Chark Thursday Austin caught one of three targets for eight yards during Sunday's 24-21 loss at Cincinnati.
Impact Austin was activated from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game and wasn't expected have a significant role in his season debut, but he ended up playing 41 of 56 offensive snaps -- which ranked third among Jacksonville's wideouts -- after DJ Chark went down with a broken ankle early in the first quarter. The 31-year-old tied with Marvin Jones for second on the team in targets, all three of which came in the short passing game. Austin appears set to work as the Jaguars' No. 3 wideout behind Jones and Laviska Shenault, but the veteran journeyman is unlikely to have a significant role in the passing game week-to-week.

Joins Week 4 roster The Jaguars activated Austin (quadriceps) from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game against the Bengals, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.
Impact After missing Jacksonville's first three games while residing on IR, Austin returned to practice Monday, and the team apparently saw enough from him in their three sessions this week to deem him ready for game action. Though he's now a member of the 53-man roster, Austin won't necessarily be one of the team's 46 active players Thursday. He's likely behind all of DJ Chark, Marvin Jones, Laviska Shenault and Tyron Johnson on the depth chart at receiver, and Jamal Agnew is probably secure as Jacksonville's return specialist after he brought back a kickoff 102 yards for a touchdown Week 2 and a missed field goal for a 109-yard score Week 3.
