  "account": "In Jacksonville Jaguars' preseason opener in New Orleans, rookie offensive lineman Emmanuel Pregnon delivered an impressive debut. Playing 32 snaps at left guard, Pregnon limited opponents to just one pressure during 18 pass-blocking snaps. Head coach Liam Coen was highly pleased with Pregnon's performance, praising his ability to move players in one-on-one situations, decoy opponents on a pull, and execute an outstanding block on an interception. Coen noted that Pregnon \"flashed\" during the game, particularly when given opportunities with the ball. As Jacksonville battles injuries along the offensive line, Pregnon's performance could potentially grant him more starting opportunities, specifically at right guard. However, the Jaguars intend to proceed cautiously, allowing the rookie to continue developing. Coen emphasized that the team is not rushing Pregnon's progress, hoping he will be ready once the time is right. Pregnon primarily lined up at left guard during his time at Oregon, where he also saw most of his game action in Jacksonville, following backup guard Ezra Cleveland. With Patrick Mekari out, Jonah Monheim and Wyatt Milum have typically secured the right guard reps.",
