It was the fourth-longest kickoff return in franchise history, and was the first since former DB Tyjuan Hagler had a 41-yard onside kickoff return for score in 2010.

Jacksonville Jaguars RB Deji Karim is inactive for Week 13 against the San Diego Chargers, but he is healthy. He is reportedly falling out of favor, especially with the new coaching regime, as FB Brock Bolen and RBs DuJuan Harris and Montell Owens appear to be ahead of him.
Jacksonville Jaguars RB Deji Karim had seven carries for 28 yards in Week 7 against the Baltimore Ravens Monday, Oct. 24. The seven carries were his most since Week 1, when he had 14 rushes.
Fantasy Impact: Karim won't get enough work to help fantasy teams just yet.

Jacksonville Jaguars RB Deji Karim carried 14 times for 33 yards in Week 1 against the Tennessee Titans, and he hauled in three receptions for 39 yards. The Jaguars offense was heavily ground-based, as they ran it 47 times and passed on just 24 occasions.
Fantasy Impact: Karim could get a little more work than your usual backup in this offense but still isn't much more than a fantasy handcuff for Maurice Jones-Drew.
