Here is a projected look at the Jaguars’ projected depth charts at each position for the first training camp practice.
Training camp is here for the Jacksonville Jaguars, with the team’s first practice taking place on Wednesday, July 23rd.
Of course, a lot can and will change over the next month, but given what we know right now, we’ll do our best to construct what the Jaguars’ depth charts look like at each position group.
- Trevor Lawrence
- Nick Mullens
- John Wolford
- Seth Henigan (UDFA)
Henigan and Wolford will be competing for the third quarterback spot, which could come on the practice squad if the Jaguars roster only two quarterbacks. Wolford has NFL experience and playing in Liam Coen’s offense, so I’ll give him the advantage early on over Henigan, but oftentimes when it comes to filling those backend roster spots, teams prefer younger, higher upside talent, which in this case would be Henigan.
- Tank Bigsby
- Trevor Etienne
- Bhayshul Tuten (Draft pick)
- LeQuint Allen (Draft pick)
- Ja’Quinden Jackson (UDFA)
Bigsby goes to the top of the depth chart based on how he performed last season. Etienne, for now, gets the edge over Bhayshul Tuten. As a seventh-round rookie, Allen is fourth at this time.
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receivers
- Brian Thomas Jr.
- Travis Hunter (Draft pick)
- Dyami Brown
- Parker Washington
- Trenton Irwin
- Josh Cephus
- Cam Camper (UDFA)
- Eli Pancol (UDFA)
- Austin Trammell
- Dorian Strong (UDFA)
- Louis Rees-Zammit
- Chandler Brayboy (UDFA)
- JJ Jones (UDFA)
- Darius Lassiter (UDFA)
We know who the first four spots on the wide receiver depth chart belong to, but the question here is how many wideouts do the Jaguars roster–five or six–and who earns those spots? Irwin gets the nod for his experience in the NFL, while Cephus, Camper, and Pancol were all highlighted by coaches during offseason programs.
Jacksonville Jaguars tight ends
- Brenton Strange
- Johnny Mundt
- Hunter Long
- Quintin Morris
- Shawn Bowman
- John Copenhaver (UDFA)
- Patrick Herbert (UDFA)
Mundt, Long, and Morris will be competing for that TE2 role behind Strange. As I’ve said before, whoever can be the most consistent blocker likely earns more playing time. As of now, Mundt gets the advantage, given his recent playing time experience.
Jacksonville Jaguars’ offensive linemen
- Walker Little
- Chuma Edoga
- Anton Harrison
- Fred Johnson
- Cole Van Lanen
- Javon Foster
- Ezra Cleveland
- Patrick Mekari
- Wyatt Milum (Draft pick)
- Dennis Daley
- Sal Wormley (UDFA)
- Robert Hainsey
- Jonah Monheim (Draft pick)
- Luke Fortner
ESPN’s Michael DiRocco reported recently that Edoga and Harrison were splitting first-team reps at right tackle. I’m going to give Edoga the advantage at this time with Little being the left tackle. At guard, Cleveland and Mekari are the likely starters, but DiRocco also mentioned that Milum is getting the opportunity to compete at left guard. The center position belongs to Robert Hainsey, who played under Coen in Tampa Bay last season.
Jacksonville Jaguars defensive ends
- Josh Hines-Allen
- Travon Walker
- Emmanuel Ogbah
- Dawuane Smoot
- Dennis Gardeck
- Myles Cole
- Danny Striggow
- BJ Green II
- Ethan Downs
What to watch for here is how the playing time behind Hines-Allen and Walker shakes out. As the veterans, I expect Ogbah, Smoot, and Gardeck to all make the team ahead of Cole and the three UDFAs.
Jacksonville Jaguars’ defensive tackles
- Arik Armstead
- DaVon Hamilton
- Maason Smith
- Tyler Lacy
- Jordan Jefferson
- Keivie Rose
- Eli Mostaert
- Ethan Downs
- James Carpenter
Improved play is greatly needed here. Defensive end and tackle are positions where four or even five players see regular playing time. We have a good idea of who those players might end up being, but how the playing time shakes out when it comes to those rotational roles will be determined by what happens this summer.
Jacksonville Jaguars linebackers
- Devin Lloyd
- Foye Oluokun
- Ventrell Miller
- Chad Muma
- Jake Kiser
- Jalen McLeod
- Yasir Abdullah
- Branson Combs
Lloyd and Oluokun are the starters. Either Miller or Muma can provide experienced depth, while Kiser and McLeod are the recent draft picks. Abdullah has defensive and special teams experience as well. However, not all seven of those players are making the final roster. Even keeping six would require the Jaguars to go light at another position.
Jacksonville Jaguars cornerbacks
- Tyson Campbell
- Jourdan Lewis
- Montaric Brown
- Travis Hunter
- Jarrian Jones
- De’Antre Prince
- Christian Braswell
- Jabbar Muhammad
- Zech McPhearson
- Doneiko Slaughter
- Aydan White
According to DiRocco, Brown took a lot of the first team reps this spring with that starting outside cornerback spot opposite of Campbell up for grabs. DiRocco also added that Jones is navigating a bit of a learning curve with this new, zone-heavy defense. Hunter, meanwhile, mostly played wide receiver during offseason programs but will now get more opportunities at cornerback during training camp, which could shake up the depth chart a bit. Given what we heard during OTAs and minicamp, Prince gets that potentially sixth and final roster spot.
Jacksonville Jaguars safeties
- Eric Murray
- Andrew Wingard
- Darnell Savage
- Caleb Ransaw
- Antonio Johnson
- Daniel Thomas
- Rayuan Lane
- Cam’Ron Silmon-Craig
We know Murray is starting, but who will be lining up next to him is still to be determined. Campanile spoke about the competition at safety during minicamp and mentioned Winard, Savage, Ransaw, and Johnson all being in the mix. I have Ransaw fourth because he’s a rookie who is also making a bit of a position change after mostly lining up in the nickel at Tulane. That, of course, can all change quickly.
Jacksonville Jaguars special teams
- P Logan Cooke
- K Cam Little
- LS Ross Matiscik
