No. 4 Jaguars player who must show out vs. the Colts in Week 6: Tyler Shatley, OL

Tyler Shatley took over for an ineffective Ben Bartch at left guard in Week 3. Then Walker Little moved inside when Cam Robinson returned from the suspension he served. However, Little's switch to the interior offensive line only lasted a few snaps and Shatley was once again plugged in at left guard.

With Little expected to miss time with an MCL injury, Shatley will get his second start of the season. This time though, he'll go against the duo of Grover Stewart and DeForest Buckner.

The Jaguars will keep making changes to the offensive line in the upcoming weeks but a good outing against the Colts will ensure Shatley remains at left guard.

No. 3 Jaguars player who must show out vs. the Colts in Week 6: Travon Walker, OLB

Outside linebacker Travon Walker keeps making strides in Year 2. He and Josh Allen had four total pressures each against the Bills in Week 5, giving the former 12 for the season. However, more is needed from him if the Jags want to dispel any potential concerns about the pass rush.

Defensive end Dawuane Smoot could make his season debut against Indianapolis and his presence would give defensive coordinator Mike Caldwell to deploy Walker inside. But with or without Smoot, Walker needs to step up both against the pass and the run.
