No. 2 Jaguars player who must show out vs. the Colts in Week 6: Evan Engram, TE

Evan Engram is flying under the radar this season. Although he's second in the league in both receptions (29) and yards (260) among the league, his name won't pop up nearly as often as Calvin Ridley's or Christian Kirk's when discussing the Jaguars' top offensive weapons.

Maybe it's the lack of touchdowns, but regardless of the reason, there's no doubt Trevor Lawrence has a reliable target in him. In fact, Lawrence had nothing but praise for him when he met with the local media Wednesday, calling him a spark for the offense.

Evan should be an important part of the offense in Week 6, especially when you consider that the Colts will try to slow down both Kirk and Ridley.

No. 1 Jaguars player who must show out vs. the Colts in Week 6: Travis Etienne, RB

Travis Etienne had a bit of a rough stretch early in the season but he showed against the Colts what he's capable of doing when he's got room to run. In what's arguably the best game of his young career, the former Clemson Tiger toted the rock 26 times for 136 yards with two touchdowns. He also added 48 receiving yards on four catches.

Before Week 5, Etienne was averaging 3.8 yards per carry, though no fault of his own. The offensive line has been inconsistent this season but if they can pave the way for him against the Colts, he should have a productive outing for the second straight game.
