Jacksonville Jaguars

Cole Van Lanen

OT

It's unclear what Van Lanen was working through this summer, but he did miss the team's wild-card playoff loss to the Bills in January with a knee issue. Van Lanen played all over the offensive line last season and inked a three-year, $51 million extension during the 2025 season. He's expected to push third-round rookie Emmanuel Pregnon for the starting spot at left guard.

Daniel Faalele

G

Faalele signed with the Giants on a one-year deal in April, following coach John Harbaugh as he transitioned from the Ravens. The offensive guard has now been dealt to the Jaguars, who likely picked up Faalele as a replacement for Patrick Mekari (back) while he recovers from his back surgery. Faalele, a 2022 fourth-round pick, has appeared in 66 regular-season games, starting in 35 of those contests.

Nick Mullens

QB

Mullens participated in 11-on-11 drills during Tuesday's session. The veteran quarterback went 3-for-7 for 33 yards and an interception in last Saturday's preseason opener against the Saints. Mullens' participation likely means he'll be available to check into Friday's contest against the Panthers once Trevor Lawrence's potential snaps are done. After Mullen's performance last Saturday, however, coach Liam Cohen might decide to give Carter Bradley or Joey Aguilar the bulk of the second-team snaps.

Baylon Spector

LB

The Jaguars are bringing Spector in to fortify their depth at linebacker after rookie seventh-rounder Parker Hughes (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve. Spector appeared in three regular-season games for the Bills in 2025 and played in each of Buffalo's two postseason games, totaling four tackles (two solo) across those five contests.

Trevor Lawrence

QB

Lawrence sat out this past Saturday's preseason opener versus the Saints, but the Jaguars' franchise QB could see some action Friday. In that scenario, Coen relayed that the team's starters may "get a couple drives potentially."

Jakobi Meyers

WR

As an established veteran, Meyers was held out of Saturday's contest for rest and injury prevention purposes. He remains on track to open the regular season as one of Jacksonville's top three wideouts alongside Brian Thomas and Parker Washington.

Brenton Strange

TE

Jacksonville held out key starters for its preseason opener, and Strange was among that group. After signing a three-year extension in June, Strange seems safely locked in atop a tight end depth chart that added rookies Nate Boerkircher and Tanner Koziol in the second and fifth rounds, respectively, of the 2026 NFL Draft.

Josh Cameron

WR

Cameron's lone catch came early in the first quarter on a connection with Nick Mullens. The rookie wideout also contributed in the return game, which may suggest that he'll have a role in that regard during the regular season. Cameron has a tough path to opportunities as a pass catcher, however, as all of Brian Thomas, Parker Washington, Jakobi Meyers and Travis Hunter are firmly ahead of him on the depth chart.

CJ Williams

WR

The Jaguars selected two wide receivers in the sixth round of the 2026 Draft, with Josh Cameron going 191st overall and Williams at 203rd overall. Both of them played the first half in the team's exhibition opener, but Williams outproduced Cameron's 1-17-0 on three targets. All of Brian Thomas, Parker Washington, Jakobi Meyers and CB/WR Travis Hunter are locked into the top spots at the position on the depth chart, so Williams and Cameron likely are jostling along with Tim Jones and Austin Trammell for one of the final jobs on the roster.

Tanner Koziol

TE

Neither of Koziol's targets were particularly well thrown, so his lack of catches shouldn't be a major concern. The rookie fifth-round pick will look to make a louder impact, however, in Jacksonville's remaining preseason contests. Brenton Strange is slated to be the Jaguars' top tight end during the upcoming season, with Koziol and Nate Boerkircher jockeying for the No. 2 and No. 3 slots.

Cam Little

PK

Little showed no rust in his first game action since last season, making field goals from 54, 32 and 36 yards out, respectively. The big-legged kicker enters his third NFL campaign on the heels of a standout sophomore season during which he made 30 of 34 FG tries over 17 regular-season games and set an NFL record with a 68-yard make against the Raiders in Week 9. Little's accuracy and ability to convert from distance make him among the top kicker choices in most fantasy formats.

Brian Thomas Jr.

WR

After an outstanding rookie campaign in which he put up a 87-1,282-10 receiving line on 133 targets over 17 contests, Thomas saw his production crater in Year 2 (48-707-2 line in 14 games). Though the Jacksonville offense took a step forward as a whole under first-year head coach Liam Coen, Thomas ended up sacrificing heavy target volume to Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington, who emerged as trusted weapons underneath and in the intermediate area for quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Wolfe notes that while the Jaguars value Thomas "a ton" and have no desire to trade him, the coaching staff learned last season that the wideout's strengths lie in using his blazing speed to run deep routes on the perimeter rather than taking contact on routes in the middle and shorter areas of the field. While that sort of role typically doesn't lend itself to consistently heavy target counts week to week, it's not one that's completely bereft of fantasy value. Wolfe cites Brandin Cooks -- whose tenure with the Rams overlapped with Coen's time as an assistant for the team -- as a player in a similar mold as Thomas who was able to turn in productive seasons on modest target volume while primarily serving as a vertical threat.

Travis Hunter

WR

Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports that Hunter has played 96 snaps on defense and 61 on offense in 11-on-11s during the open portions of practice. The team hasn't been shy about the expectation that Hunter will take on a far larger defensive workload this season, but there's still rampant debate in fantasy circles about his usage on offense. His role on that side of the ball may depend in part on the health of Jacksonville's other wide receivers, namely Parker Washington, Brian Thomas and Jakobi Meyers.

Chris Rodriguez Jr.

RB

While preseason depth charts posted by NFL teams tend to be unreliable as projections for Week 1, this listing isn't unexpected. The Jaguars seem to be trending toward employing a committee approach to fill the void created by the offseason departure of Travis Etienne, with LeQuint Allen potentially mixing in on third downs as well. In that context, Rodriguez could see enough touches out of the gate this season to merit fantasy consideration.

Bhayshul Tuten

RB

Preseason depth charts can often be taken with a grain of salt, but in this case the listing aligns with the notion that the Jaguars will employ a committee approach to fill the void created by the offseason departure of Travis Etienne. Also in the mix for backfield touches is LeQuint Allen, who could factor in on third downs. Regardless of how the team's snaps and touches are distributed, Tuten figures to merit fantasy consideration right out of the gate this season.

Jahlani Tavai

LB

Tavai will join Jacksonville at training camp after spending the last five months as a free agent following his release from the Patriots in March with a failed physical. The linebacker appears to have moved past his undisclosed injury, and he will now look to compete for a spot on the Jaguars' 53-man roster in 2026. Tavai recorded 42 total tackles (21 solo) and a forced fumble while splitting his time between the defense and special-teams unit over 12 regular-season contests with New England in 2025.

Danny Striggow

DE

Striggow joined the Jaguars in May of 2025 as an undrafted free agent but impressed the coaching staff enough to appear in 10 regular-season games last year, finishing with 16 tackles (six solo), including 0.5 sacks, and one fumble recovery. Training camp and preseason games present Striggow with the opportunity to earn a larger role for himself for the 2026 season.
