Jacksonville Jaguars All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey been selected as a starter for the 2019 NFL Pro Bowl for the second consecutive season. Entering Week 16, Ramsey has totaled 57 tackles (54 solo), 11 passes defensed and three interceptions. Since being drafted fifth overall in the 2016 NFL Draft out of Florida State, Ramsey has appeared in all 46 games and has totaled 185 tackles (161 solo), 42 passes defensed, nine interceptions, and one forced fumble. Ramsey’s 10 career games with multiple passes defensed are the most through three seasons in franchise history, while his 42 career...

The Jacksonville Jaguars have seen wide receiver Allen Lazard and running back Bo Scarbrough claimed by other teams to their 53-man active roster. The team has signed rookie fullback Dimitri Flowers and rookie wide receiver Jordan Veasy to replace them. The #Seahawks have signed RB Bo Scarbrough off Jacksonville’s practice squad. Former #Cowboys draft pick.— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) December 18, 2018 The #Packers have signed WR Allen Lazard from the #Jaguars’ practice squad, source said.— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) December 18, 2018 It makes total sense to let Rashad...

Pro Football Focus is charting everything when it comes to the 2018 NFL regular season and that includes the Week 15 matchup between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Washington. So who was the cream of the crop and who did poorly on Sunday? Let’s check it out! Offense For the second week in a row WR Dede Westbrook was the Jaguars highest graded player on offense. His overall grade of 76.5 ranked 18th among receivers, the bulk of his grade game in the run game where he ran for 20 yards on a jet sweep as the passing game struggled. Cody Kessler had a day to forget, completing only 9-of-17...

The Jacksonville Jaguars have placed rookie safety Ronnie Harrison on season ending injured reserve with a knee injury. #Jaguars are placing SS Ronnie Harrison on IR.— Daniel Popper (@danielrpopper) December 17, 2018 With Barry Church released last week, the strong safety position will be up to Cody Davis and Jarrod Wilson for the final two games of the year.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have signed first-year long snapper Christian Kuntz to the practice squad. The team had an opening on the 10-man practice squad after defensive lineman Lyndon Johnson was promoted to the 53-man roster last Friday. Kuntz has previously spent time with the Denver Broncos during the 2018 offseason. He played linebacker collegiately at Duquense University and was a part of three Northeast Conference (NEC) championship teams (2013, 2015 and 2016), totaling a 23-11 overall record during his three years as a starter. He is the only Duquesne player in the school’s...

The Jacksonville Jaguars do not have their quarterback of the future on their roster. Blake Bortles is gone. Cody Kessler ain’t good enough. An older veteran might be what this team rolls out in 2019 but the fact remains — there will be a new guy under center in September. Dan Kadar of Mocking The Draft knows as much and believes the Jaguars are the first team in the 2019 NFL Draft to pick a quarterback and it’s going to be Heisman finalist Dwayne Haskins. 5. Jacksonville Jaguars: Dwayne Haskins, QB, Ohio State As the college football season progressed, Haskins asserted himself as...

With their ninth loss in the last 10 weeks, the Jacksonville Jaguars are currently in possession of the No. 5 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. Current 2019 NFL Draft order:1. Cardinals: 3-112. Raiders: 3-113. Jets: 4-104. 49ers: 4-105. Jaguars: 4-106. Falcons: 5-97. Lions: 5-98. Giants: 5-99. Buccaneers: 5-910. Bills: 5-9— Field Yates (@FieldYates) December 17, 2018 There’s not a team ahead of the Jaguars who pose a threat to pick a quarterback. But... There’s always the threat for a team like the Oakland Raiders to give up their first round pick for a big haul from a team...

The Jacksonville Jaguars’ season is over — in truth, it’s been over since October — and the game of towing the line between winning this year and preparing for the next has begun. It’s a game we know well, having watched this team clinch one winning season since 2008. But a win was there for the taking yesterday. Josh Johnson hadn’t thrown an NFL pass since Barack Obama’s first term. The defense, while lapsing several times this year, was playing well enough to win. Special teams was giving us the edge. We were winning by a touchdown at halftime. And then Leonard Fournette was...

A week ago I wrote about how I thought the Jacksonville Jaguars should approach the offseason with their front office and coaching staff. More or less, they should clear out everyone and start over on that regard. I did note that I thought head coach Doug Marrone was probably going to survive along with VP of football operations Tom Coughlin, meaning that David Caldwell, Todd Wash and others would get booted. After the last two games my opinion has kind of shifted a bit. I know that what really is two more losses, but on the flipside it’s how they lost those games. They weren’t even...

I had been waiting to write this piece until after the Redskins game because I felt that we would have a lot more resolution on the job status of the Jaguars coaching staff based on the result, mainly the head coach. Before the game, I felt like a loss to a team with fourth-string offensive guards and a quarterback signed off the couch two weeks ago would be devastating for Doug Marrone, and while I’m not positive he will be relieved of his duties after the season, his team’s lackluster performance on Sunday certainly didn’t help his cause. "75% chance [Marrone] is back." -...

Just when you thought that it couldn’t get any worse, the Jacksonville Jaguars will remind you that it most certainly can. Milking the clock with a 10-6 lead and time running out on the Washington Redskins chances, the Jaguars just needed to do what they had done all day in stopping an equally anemic Redskins offense and run out a couple of first downs to send the home crowd at TIAA Bank Field away with some positive vibes going into 2019. Instead, they got a sequence of events that included a deflected pass that should’ve been intercepted instead fall into the arms of receiver Jamison...

Due to some communication issues, we are a little late on getting up our weekly Q&A with the enemy piece. But since we now have our responses in, look at it as some in-game reading as the Washington Redskins and Jacksonville Jaguars have already kicked off. We spoke to Ken Meringolo of Hogs Heaven to gain some insights into the Washington Redskins. 1. Not unlike the Jaguars -- but in different ways -- the Redskins seem to be falling apart due to instability at the quarterback position following the brutal injury to Alex Smith. Colt McCoy is also now lost for the season, and the Mark...

Feel free to leave commentary, and stay with us following the game for post-game recaps.

Follow along with us as we bring you live coverage of the game and all the post-game thoughts...

With the release of veteran safety Barry Church and the talk from defensive tackle Malik Jackson knowing his time in Jacksonville is limited, I’ve gotten a lot of questions about the Jacksonville Jaguars salary cap and what it’s going to look like in 2019. A lot of fans seem to be concerned because as of right now, the Jaguars are projected to be over the cap which means they’ll need to shed salary to get under to make some moves. It’s not as dire straits as some would lead you to believe, especially since some of the salary shedding was already planned. First, the 2019 salary cap...

The Jacksonville Jaguars announced on Friday that they have released veteran safety Barry Church, who will be subject to waivers. The Jaguars also activated offensive lineman Josh Wells from injured reserve, placed offensive lineman Josh Walker on injured reserve and signed defensive lineman Lyndon Johnson in a flurry of roster moves. Church had already been benched in favor of third round draft pick Ronnie Harrison and was a healthy scratch last week. The writing was on the wall that the team was going to move on from the aging veteran this offseason, if nothing else but to save just over...
