Jaguars coach Doug Pederson has almost ruled out Pro Bowl tight end Evan Engram for the game against Houston on Sunday.

Pederson said Engram is doubtful to come back in time for the AFC South game after missing the last two matches. Engram strained a hamstring during warmups before the team’s home opener against Cleveland in Week 2.

“With a hamstring like that, they’re finicky; let’s call it that,” Pederson mentioned on Friday. “It’ll be a long shot.”

Last season, Engram had a career-high 114 catches for 963 yards and four touchdowns. In the season opener against Miami, he made one catch for 5 yards.

Pederson stated that “next week looks promising” for Engram’s return. The Jaguars (0-3) will host Indianapolis (1-2) on October 6.
