Conley isn't but didn't get much playing before coming here. Linder and Norwell are only offensive vets and they have been inconsistent as well.

Plus, while Flip's forte has been utilizing formations with TE and RB, and the Jaguars have not had a decent TE stay healthy in like 10 years or something. It's becoming ridiculous.

It’s appalling how we’ve disregarded the TE position for so long. It’s like we refuse to make a concerted effort to add some dynamism to that position.

The thing is, if Josh Allen hadn't fallen to us, we'd almost certainly would've drafted TE T.J. Hockenson. We couldn't turn down the best player in the draft, so unfortunately the TE position became an afterthought, once again and we waited until the 3rd round to address it with a guy who has yet to see the field. It's getting to the point where we almost have to make a trade for a TE, to salvage what is left of the season. With O'Shaughnessy gone for the season, Swaim concussed and Oliver still nursing a hamstring, the TE position is basically useless for us, considering who we have left.
