Thomas Jr. Surges Ahead for Jaguars | Jacksonville Jaguars News

Bryan Thomas Jr. is on the verge of making the Jacksonville Jaguars’ 53-man roster as an undrafted rookie, thanks to his explosive preseason performance—leading the team with eight pressures and four sacks in over 100 defensive snaps. His late surge has edged out fellow rookie Zach Durfee for the final defensive lineman spot, with head coach Liam Coen praising his pass-rushing ability as a “gift.” With five spots already secured by veterans like Travon Walker and B.J. Green II, Thomas’s standout play has made him the frontrunner for the last open roster slot. The decision will be finalized by August 30th, and the Jaguars’ track record of keeping undrafted talent gives Thomas a strong shot at staying with the team—or risk losing a breakout player to another franchise.
