Can he ever find his way back into the starting lineup? I think he can, but it's going to be next year. He's had to deal with too many injuries this year and it's been disappointing.
Done? No, but the number of injuries he's taken is a concern, and it's worth wondering if the game-breaking ability that got him picked at the top of round two has been affected.
I would put him on IR. This year is toast anyway.Maybe a new strength and condioning coach next year

It seems that we have too many critical injuries every year. Other teams have the same problem, of course, but I guess we just don't have the ability to overcome these injuries.

I think most teams wouldve had him on the bench but the Jaguars are lacking talent so they keep hoping to put him in there.
Could be. He's not taking Hurns or AR15 away from their spots at this point and Rashad Greene is the slot guy. Honestly, he's pushing himself further and further down the roster with these injuries until he's trade bait.
He will probably be back after the bye if I had to guess. By then he would have over a month to rehab it hopefully he'll be good to go. As for his position in the lineup; once he comes back he will definitely be on the field a lot. He has speed that Arob and hurns don't have. Hurns is a good slot player and lee can play the slot in some formations
Hurns has proved his worth, so it'll most likely be Arob and hurns mostly in 2 WR sets unless lee has a certain play that fits his skill set better than hurns.
Its sad that most forget he is on the team because of how much he has been out.

Wouldn't it be amazing if we got both Lee and Blackmon back??
Hamstring injuries for someone like Lee are almost impossible to fully recover from during the season.
He may make a decent 3rd WR.
I would train him as a punt returner as well.

Can't be worse than Ace.

Ace had ups and downs, but was overall a good football player. Was talented as a receiver and had a breakout game against the Texans back in 2013.
He was below average in the return ability, but still a viable option. Too bad he couldn't stay away from the dope, Jim.

Face it Justin Blackmon is never coming back to the NFL.

Hey now, you never know!
He may make it back this year or next, but at this point you cant ignore his history both with the Jags and at USC. I'd be surprised if he ever amounts to much at this point, but I've been surprised before.
A healthy Lee would make this offense more fun to watch. Since he's not playing, I would hope the hamstring is healing. I think we'll see him back around game 9 or 10 to test it again.
I think he's done for the season, he had problems with this since early in June and still hasn't fixed it, I'm not counting on seeing him again before next year honestly.
Also, if we had won the games we could have wone (Indy and Tampa especially) the season could still have been competitive for a playoff spot, right now the season is basically over (unless they turn it around magically by beating Houston, Bills and Jets in a row, which seems impossible) so no need to risk players.
