No, not that Josh Allen. Myles Jack isn't going against his defensive teammate, Jalen Ramsey by praising the Bills quarterback. It's Jacksonville's first pick from the 2019 NFL Draft, Josh Allen.
The Kentucky product finished the day by leading the team in tackles with four to his credit. Two of those tackles were for a loss and he came away with two quarterback hits. A strong performance for a rookie pass rusher looking to make a name for himself early.
And he's already received some adoration from his new teammate, Myles Jack, who referred to Allen as a “beast.”
“They did their research on that pick. That was a great pick. Josh is very talented, very athletic. It’s freaky, man. That’s why I call him ‘LeBron James.’ He’s athletic. He can do a lot of things,” Jack said per Philp Heilman of TheAthletic.com.
Allen was already receiving major endorsements from draft experts and staff in the league across the board for what he did while at Kentucky. And with the way he played in this preseason game he's earning far more high praise for the way he works.
Head coach Doug Marrone continued with showing how much the Jaguars enjoy having him and went into detail on his work ethic.
Whatever you see tonight, I can promise you that kid, he’s going to work twice as hard, he’s going to be twice as pissed if he missed something. That’s how he is. And he goes after it.
It looks to be the start of a promising and successful career in the league.
