Jaguars WR Christian Kirk (core) to miss time

Wideout Christian Kirk left early in Monday’s game and head coach Doug Pederson told reporters on Tuesday that Kirk will miss some time with a core muscle injury that will likely require surgery. The Jaguars face the Browns in Week 14 and then face the Ravens, Buccaneers, Panthers, and Titans.

Kirk had one catch for 26 yards on Monday. He has 57 catches for 787 yards and three touchdowns for the season.

Fantasy Impact: 

Parker Washington had six catches for 61 yards and a touchdown against Cincinnati after not catching a pass in his first three games, so it seems likely that he’ll continue to have a role in the offense with Kirk out of action, the story speculated. There was no exact timetable for Kirk's injury, but at this point, owners may want to have alternate plans for their fantasy regular season stretch runs and playoffs. Washington is certainly worth a pickup and stash in most formats.
