With Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Telvin Smith announcing last week that he isn’t playing football in 2019, there have been rumors flying that Myles Jack might be switching positions to take his spot. Jack played the strong-side and middle linebacker position his first two seasons but he doesn’t want to be the guy switching positions. Jack […]

Two years ago, Leonard Fournette made a huge impact as a rookie for the Jacksonville Jaguars, rushing for 1,040 yards and nine touchdowns while hauling in 36 receptions for 302 yards and a score. He played a significant role in leading the Jaguars to the playoffs and then eventually the AFC Championship Game, and in […]

Never count Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles out. As a second-year player, he made the Pro Bowl while posting the third-highest passer rating in NFL history, and then, as a seemingly washed up retread, led the Philadelphia Eagles to their first-ever Super Bowl victory in 2017. A former third-round pick, Foles was finally rewarded this […]

Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Telvin Smith recently announced he would step away from football for the 2019 season. That did not sit well with some people, who criticized Smith’s decision. In response to those people, Smith posted an Instagram story on Saturday blasting his critics and reminding them that football isn’t the be-all and end-all in […]

Jacksonville Jaguars coach Doug Marrone made it clear on Friday that the team is there to support linebacker Telvin Smith in any way they can. When Marrone stepped up to the podium on Friday to discuss rookie minicamp the first thing he talked about wasn’t about the rookies, rather the teams star linebacker. “I think […]

After sharing some cryptic social media posts earlier this week, Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Telvin Smith announced earlier this afternoon that he will sit out the entire 2019 NFL season.

Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Telvin Smith recently took to Instagram to speak out regarding his current status in “Sacksonville.” While it appears as though Smith isn’t leaving the Jaguars anytime soon, his relationship with head coach Doug Marrone and the rest of the franchise in Jacksonville may be a bit strained. “Understand this, I never left […]

For the first time since 2015, Nick Foles will open the season as a starting quarterback. Sounds weird, right? Yes, Foles led the Philadelphia Eagles to their first ever Super Bowl title during the 2017 campaign. And yes, he led them to another playoff win this past season, but Foles doesn’t actually have a huge […]

Leonard Fournette had an incredibly rough season for the Jacksonville Jaguars last year. He even faced rumors that the team could look to trade or release him this offseason. Despite all of the rumors, he is set to enter the 2019 NFL season as the starting running back alongside of new quarterback Nick Foles. While […]

Could Jacksonville Jaguars defensive lineman Yannick Ngakoue be looking for a new contract? It seems that way. Ngakoue has joined cornerback Jalen Ramsey and linebacker Telvin Smith as Jaguars players that are absent from offseason workouts, but the difference with Ngakoue is that he actually attended for the first few days before leaving, according to […]

University of Kentucky pass rusher Josh Allen was considered one of the top defensive prospects in this year’s NFL Draft, and he ended up going to the Jacksonville Jaguars at No. 7. The thing is, Allen played outside linebacker in a 3-4 defense at Kentucky, and the Jaguars play a 4-3. That means Allen will […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars finally have a franchise quarterback capable of taking them deep into the playoffs. Still, if the team’s standout offensive line is any indication, that hardly means coach Doug Marrone’s team will be abandoning its time-honored smashmouth identity offensively. Early in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft, the Jaguars traded the […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars spent the early portion of their 2019 NFL Draft continuing to stack up a defense that was already one of the fiercest in the league, drafting Kentucky linebacker Josh Allen with the seventh overall pick in the draft. Thankfully for Jaguars fans, Allen was one of the highest touted players coming into […]

Kentucky Wildcats linebacker slipped a bit in the draft falling to the Jacksonville Jaguars at seven, but it set up a pretty unique situation if Josh Allen going at No. 7 sounds familiar it should because the same thing happened in the 2018 NFL Draft. In the 2018 draft, it was the Buffalo Bills who […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars have undergone some significant changes this offseason. Regardless, it appears cornerback Jalen Ramsey will stick around for the long haul. Ramsey was slated to enter the final year of his rookie deal this offseason. Fortunately for both player and team, the Jaguars have since decided to exercise his fifth-year option, via the […]

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey recently skipped the early portion of the team’s offseason program. Head coach Doug Marrone had to clean up the mess. With both the media and Ramsey chiming in on the issue, Marrone and the veteran defensive back appear to have patched things up in Jacksonville. It is also worth noting […]

It sounds like Tom Coughlin. It reads like Tom Coughlin, and sure enough, it is Tom Coughlin. The head of football operations for the Jacksonville Jaguars wants a distraction to go away. Tom Coughlin when asked if he has a response to the NFLPA, Jalen Ramsey or his agent: “There’s no need for me to […]

Tom Coughlin is known for being a stickler about punctuality, so much so that there was once a time where he would be livid if you weren’t 10 minutes early to a scheduled meeting. So it didn’t come as much of a surprise that the Jacksonville Jaguars’ executive vice president of football operations did not […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars are coming off of an incredibly disappointing 2018 campaign, winning just five games one year after going 10-6 and making it all the way to the AFC Championship Game and coming within a quarter of making it to the Super Bowl. Obviously, based on the season the Jaguars just had, there were […]

If one thing is for certain, Tom Coughlin is never going to let his players off easy. The Jacksonville Jaguars front office head was a punishing head coach, and he’s taken that mentality with him to his time as an executive. The Jaguars just started the voluntary portion of their offseason program, and there were […]

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles has no plans to trash talk his former team, the Philadelphia Eagles, when they match up in Week 2 of the preseason. “That’s not really my style,” Foles said with a laugh (via the Jaguars website). “And they know that as well. I’m sure they’re going to have a little […]

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette was arrested at a Florida car wash last Thursday after police noticed an outstanding warrant for his arrest as a result of an unpaid speeding ticket. However, Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone says that the team will not be disciplining Fournette for the arrest, saying that he himself has […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars were a win away from the Super Bowl in the 2017 NFL season. 2018 was a major disappointment. The Jaguars went 5-11, finishing in last place in the AFC South. What made the season so confusing was how few changes occurred. Blake Bortles was still the quarterback and Leonard Fournette was the […]

Leonard Fournette has made it into the NFL news cycle but for the wrong reasons. The Jacksonville Jaguars running back was arrested on Thursday after driving on a suspended license. Fournette reportedly had a suspended license due to failure to pay a speeding ticket that he received last November. This doesn’t bode well for Fournette […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars are getting in on the Quinnen Williams party. Although, they may be dreamers. Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Thursday morning that Williams will visit the Jaguars today. Jacksonville has the No. 7 overall pick. It is doubtful Williams gets out of the top five picks. In fact, there is a strong chance […]

Ohio State’s quarterback Dwayne Haskins was a Heisman candidate and could end up being the first quarterback off the board in the 2019 NFL draft. Haskins looks primed for his debut in the big league and could be a difference maker as well as a star in the league for the foreseeable future. Haskins’ 50 […]

Nick Foles will be playing against his old Philadelphia Eagles teammates very soon. The NFL released its preseason schedules Tuesday, and Foles will be involved in one of the most interesting preseason matchups. Foles, the new Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback, will face the Eagles in Week 2 of the preseason as Jacksonville hosts Philly. Foles, of […]

Last year when the Baltimore Ravens kept Robert Griffin III on the roster, it was a surprise to many because they usually haven’t kept three quarterbacks on the roster. It makes a lot more sense now though after RGIII revealed on a podcast posted on the Ravens team website that the Jacksonville Jaguars actually tried […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars made an under-the-radar move this offseason, signing wide receiver Chris Conley to join their smarting offensive ranks. Of course, the team’s most publicized acquisition was bringing aboard quarterback Nick Foles, and Conley is excited to play with his former Kansas City Chiefs teammate heading into 2019: “We were just working out with […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars finally got the quarterback they’ve been hoping for after signing Nick Foles this offseason. Unfortunately for Foles, the Jaguars offensive line as it is right now could use a bit more help in protecting him too much next season. The Jaguars are doing what they can to address the offensive line by […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars are adding some backfield depth. The team is signing running back Benny Cunningham, per Aaron Wilson of The Houston Chronicle. Cunningham, 28, spent the past two seasons with the Chicago Bears. The Middle Tennessee State alum originally signed with the Rams as an undrafted free agent in 2013. He spent the first four […]

There is plenty of uncertainty surrounding the state of the Jacksonville Jaguars backfield. It seems they have managed to shore up some depth with the addition of former Houston Texans running back Alfred Blue. It is no secret that Fournette’s status has been up in the air moving forward. According to ESPN’s Michael DiRocco, the […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars are still looking for a backup running back, and they seem to be zeroing in on some potential targets. According to Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk, the Jaguars will be visiting with Alfred Blue on Monday, and Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports has reported that Benny Cunningham has scheduled […]

Whether or not the Philadelphia Eagles were going to hit Nick Foles with the franchise tag was a question on everyone’s mind at the start of the NFL offseason. Apparently, they were wondering the same thing. The Eagles considered tagging Foles to keep him away from division rivals in the Washington Redskins and New York […]

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marqise Lee missed the entire 2018 season as a result of a preseason knee injury that ultimately required surgery. But, the Jaguars are expecting Lee back before the start the 2019 campaign. According to Daniel Popper of The Athletic, Jacksonville head coach Doug Marrone said that he expects Lee to return […]

Let’s go ahead and call this the “understatement of the century”. According to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone let it be known that Nick Foles needs to deliver on the field. “You have to be able to deliver results on the field,” Marrone said. “There’s a difference between personality […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars made their big free agency signing with quarterback Nick Foles. Now it’s all about getting the right people around him. The Jaguars are trying to do just that with James O’Shaughnessy. Welcome back, @JOShaughnessy80#DUUUVAL pic.twitter.com/yVwko84Hfj — Jacksonville Jaguars (@Jaguars) March 21, 2019 James O’Shaughnessy might not be the flashiest move. However, re-signing […]

A lot happened between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Leonard Fournette during the 2018 season, and not much of it would be described as productive. However, as the Jaguars released running back Carlos Hyde, it’s obvious that the franchise has put a lot of faith in Fournette, and executive vice president of football operations Tom Coughlin, confirmed […]

Former Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles is now reportedly a member of the Los Angeles Rams. Slated to serve as a back up quarterback for the reigning NFC Champions in Sean McVay’s offense, Bortles will remain behind Jared Goff on the Rams’ depth chart heading into the 2019 campaign. Nonetheless, Bortles still chose to sign […]
