Here are our thoughts on the best Jaguars “player milestones” bets to wager.
Lawrence has never thrown for more than 25 touchdowns in a season, but that reality is priced into this bet.
He will benefit from improved playcalling under Liam Coen this season, so his statistics should improve — in terms of not just efficiency, but volume as well.
Last season, Joe Burrow and Patrick Mahomes were the only quarterbacks with more pass attempts inside the 10-yard line than Baker Mayfield (who played under Coen).
Lawrence will get more chances to score near the goalline, and with Travis Hunter and Dyami Brown added to the pass-catching unit, there will be more chances for big plays as well.
Hunter’s production will be impacted by his playing time. If he only plays 60-75% of offensive snaps in 2025 to focus more on the defensive side of the ball, he may underwhelm from a statistical perspective.
However, while it’s possible he won’t be a full-time player on offense, there’s a good chance he’ll be on the field in high-leverage situations. Hunter should have plenty of chances to score the ball in the red zone. The team will want to show off its newest star, and coaches will want to use his contested-catch ability when the field gets condensed.
Hunter is also as good a candidate as anyone on the team to make a house call from anywhere on the field.
Last season, Brian Thomas Jr. ranked third in the NFL with 1,282 receiving yards. As a 21-year-old rookie. On a four-win team. In a stale offense. With two different quarterbacks.
There’s not much room for individual improvement in his game, but the ecosystem around him left much to be desired.
Assuming a clean bill of health, there is no reason to expect Thomas to regress from his record-breaking rookie campaign now that Coen has replaced Doug Pederson as head coach.
