The Jacksonville Jaguars’ new regime is continuing to bolster the defensive line unit — a proposterus notion if you ask the former general manager. According to Jordan Schultz, outside linebacker Dennis Gardeck is heading to Duval County.

Gardeck, who will be 31 before Week 1, was undrafted out of Sioux Falls in 2018. He made the Arizona Cardinals’ roster by contributing on special teams, and he eventually contributed on defense after switching from inside to outside linebacker.

The Illinois native collected 17 sacks, 156 tackles (23 for a loss), and 7 pass deflections across seven seasons in the...

Jaguars fans — how would you grade Jacksonville’s 2025 offseason?

Jacksonville signed Smoot and WR Trenton Irwin, and waived WR David White Jr.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are bringing home a familiar face.

The team signed its former third-round pick, Dawaune Smoot, on Tuesday.

Jacksonville selected Smoot with the 68th overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft out of Illinois. He totalled 23.5 sacks and 133 tackles (27 for a loss) in seven seasons with the Jaguars before playing for the Buffalo Bills in 2024. His 23.5 sacks rank 10th in franchise history.

Smoot was the Jaguars’ 2023 nominee for the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award. He and...

Snap counts and CBA wording could be the difference in millions for Travis Hunter down the line.

Is Travis Hunter a wide receiver or a cornerback? In a few years, his contract will tell us.

Since making possibly the biggest splash of the 2025 NFL Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars have been working unicorn athlete Travis Hunter as mostly a wide receiver, after the former Heisman trophy winner famously played both receiver and cornerback at Colorado.

The results are in!

This week, we asked Jacksonville Jaguars fans which second-year player will improve most in 2025.

Over half of the respondents picked Maason Smith, last year’s 48th overall pick out of LSU.

Considering the lack of bodies added to Jacksonville’s defensive line rotation this offseason, Smith has the opportunity for a breakout campaign.

“I think that whole group is about to take a jump” general manager James Gladstone said after the 2025 NFL Draft. “They’re working their tails off right now, and you can tell that there’s a connective element that’s coming to life in a short...

Jaguars fans — which second-year player do you expect to be most improved in 2025?

Of course, the *best* second-year player is Brian Thomas Jr., no questions asked. To dramatically improve from his record-setting 2024 campaign would be an astonishing feat. (You could say the same thing about kicker Cam Little.)...
