Terrelle Pryor is attempting to reignite the same play he put together from his 2016 season in Cleveland when he switched to wide receiver. But now, on his fourth team in three year, the former quarterback finds himself fighting for a roster spot in Jacksonville. And now, a setback comes his way as he suffered […]

Nick Foles got his first live-action as a member of the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday night.

Former NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson will be in attendance at Hard Rock Stadium on Thursday night when the Jacksonville Jaguars drive several hours south to visit the Miami Dolphins in a preseason battle of Florida’s professional football teams. What’s still unknown as kickoff quickly approaches, though, is for which team the six-time Pro Bowler […]

Taven Bryan had a rookie season to forget. Entering his second NFL go-around with a year of experience under his belt and a more simplified role, it goes without saying that the Jacksonville Jaguars defensive lineman should be a far more impactful player in 2019. If Bryan fails to live up to that possibility, though, […]

There seems to be a new type of confidence around the Jacksonville Jaguars since Nick Foles has come on board and wide receiver Dede Westbrook feels that. Westbrook made it clear he didn’t mean any disrespect to the Jaguars former quarterback Blake Bortles, but he is excited to get to work to what he calls […]

There was a time when Eric Berry was the most dominant safety and one of the best defensive players in the NFL, period, but here we are, in August 2019, and Berry remains without a team. Of course, health problems and injury issues have derailed Berry’s career, as a bout with cancer in 2014 and […]

There was a time when Jay Ajayi was considered one of the top up-and-coming running backs in the NFL, but those days are long gone. Now, Ajayi finds himself unsigned in late August after suffering a torn ACL last October, limiting him to just four games with the Philadelphia Eagles. Not surprisingly, teams have not […]

The Jaguars pulled the trigger on parting ways with quarterback Blake Bortles in exchange for Foles going into the 2019 NFL season. According to John […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars have a litter of options to solidify themselves as the No. 1 receiver in a Nick Foles-led offense. Whether it be Marqise Lee, Chris Conley, DeDe Westbrook, Terrelle Pryor, or Keelan Cole, somebody maybe that answer. ESPN’s Mike DiRocco offers a different option: second-year LSU product D.J. Chark. DiRocco names Chark as […]

Among the league’s most disappointing first-round picks in the past few seasons, Laquon Treadwell is near the top of the list. The Minnesota Vikings used their 23rd overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft to select the 6-foot-2 wide receiver out of Ole Miss. At the time, the Vikings initially thought they were getting a […]

Jacksonville Jaguars star running back Leonard Fournette is being given lofty expectations and full control in the backfield according to new offensive coordinator John DeFilippo.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marqise Lee started 2019 training camp on the PUP list (physically unable to perform) after tearing his ACL in the 2018 preseason. But that is no more, as, on Saturday, the Jaguars moved him off the PUP list and he is practicing, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapaport. Roughly a year from […]

In the NFL, you have to have a short-term memory and take it game-by-game. Jacksonville Jaguars offensive tackle Leonard Wester has that exact mindset after having a disappointing outing against the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday. “You’ve got to move on as fast as you can, especially during camp,” Wester said. “It’s not like during the […]

Before Nick Foles led the Philadelphia Eagles on an improbable run to their first Super Bowl title in franchise history during the 2017 campaign, the quarterback was apparently thinking of making that season his last year in the NFL. Or at least that’s what Eagles defensive lineman Brandon Graham says: Brandon Graham on Nick Foles […]

NFL fans won’t get to see Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles take on his old team. Jaguars coach Doug Marrone indicated Foles is unlikely to play in the team’s next preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com. “I will take a good look at it after [Wednesday] and probably not […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars and the Philadelphia Eagles play a preseason game on Thursday night and the big storyline surrounding the game involves one player, Nick Foles.

The Philadelphia Eagles got a glimpse of their 2019 roster in their preseason loss to the Tennessee Titans last Thursday.

Their faithful should have plenty to watch for in the game, including these three players […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars just got a major boost to their offense, as left tackle Cam Robinson has been activated from the physically unable to perform list ahead of schedule, according to Pro Football Talk.

It is no secret that Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette is coming off a disastrous 2018 campaign.

He admitted that dropping weight was one […]

Nick Foles will forever be a legend in the city of Philadelphia. The quarterback filled-in for Carson Wentz and led the Philadelphia Eagles to a crazy Super Bowl run two years ago, helping the team win their first Lombardi Trophy in franchise history.

Josh Allen was considered by some to be the best defensive prospect in the 2019 NFL Draft class, and he was ultimately taken by the defense-first Jacksonville Jaguars with the seventh overall pick.

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey recently did what many thought would never happen. Crossing enemy lines, as far as podcasts go anyway, Ramsey recently made an appearance on the new, up-and-coming podcast, “Bussin’ With The Boys,” which is led by co-hosts Will Compton and Taylor Lewan. While Lewan currently plays for the Tennessee Titans, serving […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars had an extremely disappointing 2018 season, but Leonard Fournette thinks they can get back to their old heights. After making the AFC Championship Game in 2017, expectations were understandably high heading into last year. Instead of building on their success, they fell flat on their faces. They ended up going just 5-11 […]

Nick Foles is in new surroundings as quarterback of the Jacksonville Jaguars, but among his receivers is a familiar face: Chris Conley. During the one season that Foles spent with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2016, Conley was a member of the team, and while Foles didn’t actually start under center, the two developed some […]

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette wasn’t a huge pass-catching threat during college or his first couple of years in the league, but coach Doug Marrone thinks it’s something that can be exploited this year in the offense. During Monday’s practice, he caught three passes out of the backfield looking very comfortable in the role, […]

Deciding to retire from football is never an easy decision.

Jalen Ramsey is not exactly happy in Jacksonville, as if him showing up to Jaguars training camp in an armored track wasn’t enough evidence on whether things stand between him and the front office right now.

While the Green Bay Packers and Houston Texans had tempers flaring in their joint practice, the Jacksonville Jaguars and Baltimore Ravens had the polar opposite happen. Nick Foles noticed.

According to Phillip Heilman of TheAthletic.com, […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars are signing second-year running back Roc Thomas, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Yannick Ngakoue has reported to the team’s training camp on Sunday, thus ending his 11-day holdout, ESPN’s Michael DiRocco reports. Ngakoue, 24, was absent from Jacksonville’s minicamp earlier in the summer, hoping to secure a better deal than his $2 million rookie contract. It was reported the former Maryland standout was […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars headed into the offseason without much of a plan at tight end. Maybe they had one in place, but with the players currently on the roster, most NFL observers had to assume that plan involved adding someone before the start of the regular season. Jacksonville did just that, drafting tight end Josh […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars believe they have the talent necessary to re-emerge as a Super Bowl contender in 2019. An injury to Quincy Williams, though, could certainly cause some hiccups on defense. The Jaguars announced on Thursday that Williams will miss four-to-six weeks with a knee injury. More specifically, Williams suffered a meniscus tear in his […]
