Now that the Super Bowl has been decided
Dawuane Smoot Jersey , it means the offseason talk is going to ramp up quickly for teams like the Jacksonville Jaguars.which included the hiring of offensive coordinator John
DeFilippo. We can now start looking at the roster and trying to figure out what
the team is going to have in 2019 and what they could be adding and what
positions they’ll want to be adding to.You can read about the Jaguars salary cap
situation right here for now, until the official numbers are released, that’s
the best we’ll get.Next up, we will look at the running back position.Players
under contract in 2019:Leonard Fournette: Fournette’s career with the Jaguars
since being the fourth overall pick has left a lot to be desired. He had an okay
season his rookie year, propped up by his ability to punch it in the endzone and
the team’s overall success, but his yards per carry number is abysmal even with
facing so many stacked boxes. This isn’t even mentioning is his issues off the
field which has led to his guarantees being voided and a pair of “suspensions”
leading some to think he could be dumped for the right offer. For now, we’ll
assume he’s back.Carlos Hyde: A day late and a dollar short. Hyde was a
mid-season pickup for the Jaguars while Fournette was out with a hamstring
injury, but it was late in the trade window and Hyde never seemed to get himself
going. He’d have a nice run here or there, but overall seemed like punting a
fifth-round pick.Thomas Rawls: Just recently signed as a street free agent, I’d
expect Rawls to be on the roster unless he gets hurt or is just flat out awful.
The Jaguars gambled keeping only three running backs last season and I don’t
think they’ll do that again.David Williams: Williams was signed off the Denver
Broncos practice squad mid-season during the Fournette injury situation but
didn’t get a lot of game action. He did look solid in his few carries he got in
the season, so I’m actually really interested in seeing him going forward in
training camp and preseason.Potential cap cuts:Carlos Hyde: Even though the
Jaguars used a 2019 fifth-round pick to acquire Hyde, I have a feeling they’re
going to just go ahead and chalk it up as a sunk cost and release him this
offseason. The team saves $4.7 million by releasing him.Potential free agent
options:Corey Grant: The Jaguars used a decent designation on Grant when he was
an RFA last offseason
http://www.thejaguarslockerroom.com/authentic-andrew-norwell-jersey , but after coming off a season ending foot injury and being a UFA, I wouldn’t be
shocked to see Grant re-signed on a one-year deal.Mark Ingram: If the Jaguars
decided to move on from Fournette and ended up trading him, Ingram would be an
excellent free agent addition. Latavius Murray: The Jaguars had interest in him
previously, but he opted to go to the Minnesota Vikings. I don’t know how
expensive he’d be, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Jaguars try again and
go all in on running the ball, especially if they pick a rookie QB in round
1.Kareem Hunt: It’s the elephant in the room, but it has to be mentioned. There
are already reports multiple teams are interested in signing Hunt and he will
play in the NFL again, likely for very cheap.Ameer Abdullah: If the Jaguars are
looking to replace the style of back TJ Yeldon was, Abdullah would seem like a
great fit.Alfred Blue: Similar to Murray, he fits the Jaguars style.Ty
Montgomery: Similar to Abdullah, a Yeldon-like replacement. ORCHARD PARK, N.Y.
(AP) — Once Leonard Fournette and the Jacksonville Jaguars lost their cool, Josh
Allen and the Buffalo Bills took over.Allen scored the go-ahead touchdown on a
14-yard run in the fourth quarter
Womens Abry Jones Jersey , and Buffalo beat Jacksonville 24-21 on Sunday in a game marred by a fight that led to the ejections of Fournette and Bills
defensive end Shaq Lawson.Fournette put the loss on himself.Article continues
below ...“I take full responsibility for that,” he said. “We lost the game. We
should’ve won this game hands down.”They might have with the way Fournette was
running. He scored twice and had 95 yards rushing before he was thrown out in
the third quarter.“I have to be a professional. I mean, you can’t have that,” he
said.Allen scored on the first snap of the fourth and also threw a 75-yard
touchdown pass to Robert Foster in the opening quarter in his return to the
lineup after missing four games with a sprained right throwing elbow. Buffalo
(4-7) came off its bye week to win consecutive games for the first time this
season.The Jaguars (3-8) dropped their seventh consecutive game in their longest
losing streak since a nine-game slide in 2016, which led directly to Gus Bradley
being replaced by current coach Doug Marrone.The bad blood between two teams who
met in last season’s AFC wild-card game boiled over with 2:57 left in the third
quarter.Jaguars receiver Donte Moncrief had what was initially ruled a 30-yard
TD reception at the left pylon. He was on the ground battling for control of the
ball with Levi Wallace when a Jaguars player struck Bills safety Micah Hyde from
behind.Players then began shoving each other, with Lawson going after Jaguars
running back Carlos Hyde. That’s when Fournette ran across the field to target
Lawson.They exchanged punches in the left corner of the end zone on the Bills
side of the field before eventually being separated.“I don’t know, maybe you
call it frustration on their part, I’m not sure,” Micah Hyde said, not realizing
Fournette left his own sideline to get involved.“At that time, it was 14-14. No
reason for anything on their part especially someone running on to the field
when they were on the bench,” he said.Even Bills coach Sean McDermott had blood
smeared on his hooded sweatshirt.“You know what, part of it’s mine
Lerentee McCray Jersey , and part of it’s a little bit from the scrum right there. We’ll take it,” McDermott said. “I was glad that the players supported
one another.”The game went south for Jacksonville after that.A review negated
the touchdown, ruling Moncrief was down at the 1. Carlos Hyde lost a yard on
first-and-goal, and then tight end James O’Shaughnessy was flagged for a false
start.Dede Westbrook had a touchdown catch nullified by an offensive holding
penalty on fellow receiver Keelan Cole. After Kyle Williams sacked Blake Bortles
for an 8-yard loss, Lambo missed a 42-yard attempt wide left.Buffalo took over
and needed three plays — and two personal fouls against Jacksonville — to put
together a 68-yard drive that ended with Allen’s run.“I won’t say an empty
feeling. I don’t know how to describe it,” Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey said.
“It (stinks) losing over and over and over again.”Lack of discipline, injuries
and turnovers have combined to scuttle the Jaguars, who were coming off a 20-16
loss to Pittsburgh in which they squandered a 16-0 third-quarter lead.“Wins,
losses, penalties, things like that, they all reflect on me,” Marrone said. “So
I guess if you want me to say I have to do a better job
Youth Josh Allen Jersey , then I do. I just wish I could stop it before it starts.”TUNNEL CONFRONTATIONAs Fournette and Lawson were escorted off their
respective sidelines, they met once again just before entering the tunnel.
Lawson had to be held back by a Bills official while Fournette was asked to wait
— he was then struck in the left shoulder by a fan, who had reached out from the
stands. Fournette also said he was doused with beer.QUARTERBACKSJaguars: Bortles
finished 12 of 23 for 127 yards, including a 13-yard touchdown to Westbrook with
1:20 remaining. He also threw two interceptions, the second one setting up
Stephen Hauschka’s 22-yard field goal that put Buffalo up 24-14 with 3:06
left.Bills: Allen finished 8 of 19 for 160 yards and also had a team-high 99
yards rushing. His touchdown pass to Foster was the longest completion for the
Bills since Tyrod Taylor hit Marquise Goodwin for an 84-yard TD in Buffalo’s
2016 home-opening loss to the New York Jets.TRASH TALKINGRamsey raised eyebrows
in August when he referred to Allen as “trash” in an interview with GQ magazine
. Ramsey was beaten by Allen on a 32-yard reception by Kelvin Benjamin on
Buffalo’s first touchdown drive. Ramsey was also penalized for a facemask while
tackling Benjamin.Moments after he had an interception negated by an illegal
contact penalty, Ramsey was spotted yelling “You trash, you trash!” toward the
Bills sideline. The exchange took place with three seconds left in the first
half.UP NEXTJaguars: Host Colts next Sunday, three weeks after a 29-26 loss at
Indianapolis.Bills: Close with four of five against AFC East rivals starting
with a visit to Miami next weekend.
