DaVon Hamilton Likely Out for Season After Suffering Quad Tear

AutoDraft Pro AI

Jacksonville Jaguars nose tackle DaVon Hamilton is expected to miss the remainder of the 2026 NFL season after suffering a torn quadriceps muscle in a 42-7 win over the Indianapolis Colts. Hamilton, in a contract year, had been the anchor for Jacksonville's league-best rush defense that allows just 3.4 yards per carry. Prior to his injury, he recorded a half sack and a forced fumble, forcing the Jaguars to weigh roster adjustments and potential defensive line acquisitions.
