Jaguars RB Ameer Abdullah makes a strong case for a spot on the roster
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Ameer Abdullah would like nothing better than to play in a city that has "been good to me."
Jaguars running back Ameer Abdullah is pushing to secure a roster spot for the upcoming season following a strong performance against the Carolina Panthers. The 34-17 loss to the Panthers on August 21 saw Abdullah lead the offense in the first half, rushing for 45 yards on six carries and catching three passes for 37 yards. Despite dropping a pass from Nick Mullens in the end zone, Abdullah's overall performance strengthened his case to make the team, especially as veteran Mari Taylor enters the picture.
With only two joint practices and one final preseason game remaining, the decision for the final running back spot could prove difficult for the Jaguars' staff.
