Jaguars training camp observations: QBs have an accurate day in pads
The Jacksonville Jaguars held a full-pads practice on Aug. 11 at the Miller Electric Center, with their first preseason game days away.
On August 11, the Jacksonville Jaguars held their first full pads practice of the week, preparing for their upcoming preseason games in New Orleans. Among the active players were linebacker Jack Kiser, offensive guard Patrick Mekari, cornerback Jourdan Lewis, linebacker Jalen McLeod, defensive end Zach Durfee, defensive tackle Quinton Bohanna, and tight end Quintin Morris.
Tight end Brenton Strange was notably absent from practice. Offensive tackle Cole Van Lanen, who remains on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, was observed doing individual agility work on the field while under the care of trainers.
Receiver Jakobi Meyers showcased his skills during practice, making a notable catch from quarterback Trevor Lawrence with his fingertips. Parker Washington also had a successful day, catching a deep pass down the left sideline. Quarterback Joey Aguilar, who may struggle to make the practice squad, demonstrated a solid throw on the final play of practice, completing a pass to wide receiver Michael Wortham.
Linebacker Amari Burney, who had not played since the 2024 Las Vegas regular-season finale, made an impressive impact during practice. During two reps in a blitz drill, Burney effectively steamrolled Jaguars running backs attempting to pass block.
The Jaguars' quarterbacks performed well, completing 15 of 21 passes during team periods. Trevor Lawrence was 9 of 11 accurate, while Nick Mullens was 3 of 5, Cole Bradley was 1 of 3, and Joey Aguilar was 2 of 2. The team ran the ball 18 times throughout practice.
The Jaguars will hold a walk-through session on August 12 to prepare for their joint practice with the New Orleans Saints on August 13. The Jaguars will be off on August 14 and will play the Saints at the Caesars Superdome on August 15 at 4 p.m. (FOX). Public practices are scheduled for August 19 (joint practice with the Carolina Panthers), August 23 (Military Appreciation Day), and August 25 (joint practice with the Tampa Bay Bucs).
