Jacksonville Jaguars' head coach Doug Pederson expressed optimism regarding tight end Evan Engram's potential return for Week 6 against the Bears after he has been sidelined due to a hamstring injury. Engram, who led all tight ends in receptions last season, is nearing a return, and if he participates fully in practice, he may avoid the injury report altogether. Meanwhile, Brenton Strange has stepped up in Engram's absence, making significant contributions to the team's offense.

• Evan Engram is close to returning from a hamstring injury.
• Brenton Strange has performed well in Engram's absence.
