Jacksonville Jaguars 2024 Season Preview

The Jaguars lost Calvin Ridley to the Titans and Zay Jones to the Cardinals. But quickly replaced both with free agent Gabe Davis, and first round draft selection Brian Thomas Jr. they locked down defensive end Josh Allen long term, and Trevor Lawrence just got a five-year 275-million-dollar extension.

The Jaguars pass defense was 26th in the league last year, so they’ll be hoping their combination of free agents and draft picks will bolster that. They’ve brought in a mostly new defensive coaching staff and made a few key free agent signings. Terrell Edmunds and Darnell Savage will boost the safety position with Ronald Darby and Tre Flowers bolsters the cornerbacks. Defensive lineman Arik Armsted will be a great teacher for their young rookies.

They specifically enjoyed all things LSU Tigers in the NFL Draft. After selecting wide receiver Brian Thomas in the first round of the Draft, they went on to select his Tiger teammate defensive tackle Maason Smith in the second round, and another LSU Tiger defensive tackle Jordan Jefferson in the fourth round.
