No. 4 Jaguars player whose stock is up after the win vs. the Titans: Foyesade Oluokun, LB

All things considered, linebacker Foyesade Oluokun's first season with the Jaguars went well. However, he's having a bigger impact in Year 2, making plays on the field and providing a veteran presence in the locker room. Against the Niners, Oluokun registered two sacks, and he added another one to his tally in Week 11. He now has three for the season, tying the career-best he posted in 2020. The Yale product also recovered the fumble Will Levis lost in a snap exchange.

It's fair to say that Oluokun has done enough to warrant a spot in the Pro Bowl this season. If he gets the nod, it would be the first time in his career. His superb outing against Tennessee should increase his chances.

No. 3 Jaguars player whose stock is up after the win vs. the Titans: D'Ernest Johnson, RB

The Jaguars gave rookie running back Tank Bigsby plenty of chances this season to solidify his spot as RB2 on the depth chart. However, it seems like their patience has run out. In Week 11, Bigsby was mostly relegated to special teams, and free-agent pickup D'Ernest Johnson got plenty of touches behind Travis Etienne.

Right off the bat, Johnson proved to be an upgrade over Bigsby, He only got 21 yards on the nine carries he got but managed to turn the reception he had into a 34-yard gain. Given his performance, it wouldn't be shocking if the Jags roll with Johnson moving forward.
