Jaguars Navigate Backfield Shakeups | Jacksonville Jaguars News

Jaguars navigating injury bumps as Patrick Mekari out with back procedure, Parker Washington and LeQuint Allen Jr. sidelined—but both expected back soon. Allen’s soft tissue injury sidelines him for camp but he’s on track for Week 1; depth at RB keeps things manageable. Coen confirms starters in preseason opener, with Tuten, Rodriguez Jr., and JMari Taylor stepping up. Taylor, an undrafted standout, already showing flashes—22 carries, 78 yards, TD—and impressing coaches with his blocking and work ethic. While Allen’s absence is a blow—he’s the team’s top blocker and underrated receiver—the roster’s depth helps. He’ll have time to heal before the regular season hits.
