Farrell played 31 of the Jaguars' 61 snaps on offense and didn't draw a target in Sunday's 32-16 win over the Patriots. After drawing either one or two targets from Weeks 2 through 5, Farrell has seen his already minimal role in the passing game disappear since top tight end Evan Engram returned from a hamstring injury Week 6. Farrell wasn't targeted in either of the past two contests, though he played double-digit snaps on both occasions thanks to his blocking skills.

Farrell played 31 of the Jaguars' 61 snaps on offense and didn't draw a target in Sunday's 32-16 win over the Patriots. After drawing either one or two targets from Weeks 2 through 5, Farrell has seen his already minimal role in the passing game disappear since top tight end Evan Engram returned from a hamstring injury Week 6. Farrell wasn't targeted in either of the past two contests, though he played double-digit snaps on both occasions thanks to his blocking skills.
Farrell secured both targets for 17 yards during Sunday's 37-34 win over Indianapolis. The 26-year-old once again served as Jacksonville's secondary tight end behind Brenton Strange as starter Evan Engram (hamstring) missed a fourth straight game. Farrell hasn't been fantasy-relevant even with Engram sidelined and has five receptions for 31 yards through five games this season.
Farrell caught both his targets for 13 yards during Sunday's 18-13 loss to Cleveland. The 26-year-old had an increased role since starting tight end Evan Engram (hamstring) was a late scratch Sunday, but it was Brenton Strange who operated as Jacksonville's primary tight end with three catches for 65 yards and a 68 percent snap share. Farrell played 28 of 60 offensive snaps and is unlikely to be significantly involved in the passing game even if Engram misses more time.
Farrell played 14 offensive snaps and didn't receive a target during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Dolphins. Evan Engram was the only Jaguars tight end to be involved in the passing game in the season opener. Farrell tallied career highs in catches (13) and receiving yards (155) last season, and he should continue to see occasional snaps as a blocking option.
The 26-year-old has been an afterthought in the Jaguars' passing attack all year with just seven targets through the first 10 games, but he was significantly more involved Sunday. Farrell has set career highs with 10 catches and 111 yards this season, but he's not close to being on the fantasy radar.
