The Jacksonville Jaguars will have Bhayshul Tuten in the backfield against the Tennessee Titans in Week 10, and a rebounding run game will be a focus as a result.

Will the Jacksonville Jaguars have Jessie Bates III and Jordan Davis in the lineup this week against the Tennessee Titans? That is the biggest question following Thursday's injury report.

The Jacksonville Jaguars made three big additions to their defense during this year's trade deadline, and here is how that side of the ball's depth chart has been adjusted as a result.
