The Jacksonville Jaguars will be without tight end Evan Engram for the Week 2 game against the Cleveland Browns.

Engram reportedly suffered a hamstring injury during pregame warmups and has been ruled out of the game. He is in his ninth NFL season, the fourth with the Jaguars. He has 24 career touchdowns with 4,562 yards.

Trevor Lawrence and company are looking for their first win of the season over the 0-1 Browns.  Both teams struggled in their Week 1 losses.

Deshaun Watson, the Browns starting quarterback, has never lost in his career to the Jaguars.  He is 6-0 lifetime dating back to his Houston Texans days.

Luke Farrell and Brenton Strange will likely assume tight end responsibilities in Engram's absence.

The Browns have their share of injuries going into this game with offensive linemen Jack Conklin and Jedrick Wills out along with tight end David Njoku.
