Jaguars Position Battles Heating Up

The Jacksonville Jaguars are heating up for training camp with four critical position battles that could define their season: running back, right guard, defensive end, and weak-side linebacker. Travis Etienne’s departure leaves Bhayshul Tuten and Chris Rodriguez Jr. in a three-way race for carries, with LeQuint Allen poised to shine in high-leverage situations—Rodriguez’s offseason absence looms large. On the offensive line, veteran Patrick Mekari faces a tough challenge from second-year standout Wyatt Milum, whose health and potential could flip the starting job. At defensive end, with key departures, rookies Danny Striggow, B.J. Green, Wesley Williams, and Zach Durfee are vying for snaps in a wide-open competition. And at weak-side linebacker, Ventrell Miller looks the favorite—but undrafted Branson Combs is making waves and could seize the opportunity to prove himself.
