r/JacksonvilleJags

What gives? I'm getting a little nervous honestly. Are they just too far apart right now?

Black and Teal recently published an article that floated a 4 year $64 million contract as a possibility. I bet that Washington wants much more than that with a high % guaranteed. By all accounts the agents at Klutch Sports are sharks. They'll be trying to get him paid for sure.

Does he go into the season with no contract extension? That'd be a big risk. He'd be betting not just on himself but on Trevor not screwing the pooch this year and reverting to his mean. That's a big gamble for him and his agents to take if there's a lot of money on the table.

We'll see I guess. If he goes into the season without a contract expect high drama around it.

I mean it was bad enough when we traded our best man cover corner to the Browns after the Chiefs game purely as a salary dump. I sorta got it at the time - he didn't seem to be playing up to his paycheck. The Jags only overpay dramatically underperforming DEs, LTs and QBs. They draw the line at overpaying a CB.

But when we lost Lloyd that was a real blow. More than many realize. Lloyd was such a beast that Camp could leave him on an island against good receivers and go heavy on a 2 high safety scheme. This covered up a lot of weaknesses in our backfield. It also gave the pass rushers more time to get to the QB, which that bunch badly needed given how bad they are as pass rushing unit.

If we don't do something before the season begins, our D could be in trouble. We need either a legit pass coverage LB or a truly disruptive pass rusher. Our current LBs lack the size, speed and athleticism to do what Lloyd did.

Sadly ESPN seems to think it's the final plan, which is why they just dropped us 6 spots in their 2026 power rankings. The Vegas odds guys do too based upon how bad the money line has become for the under bet on season wins.

I just can't imagine that this is the final plan. I sincerely hope not. If so, I feel awful for Camponile, who they will no doubt blame for it.

I admit that I've been waiting on my season ticket decision until I know which 6 games we're getting, which we'll know on Thursday. If I'm going to spend over $4k for two seats for 6 games I want to know what I'm buying.

What we know so far is that we aren't getting the home game against the Texans here in Jacksonville, which really sucks ass. They're playing in London on 10/18.

There is another Jags home game in London on 10/11. If we lose the Patriots game too I'm going to be pissed, maybe enough that I have to rethink this season. What a slap in the face to local fans that would be.

EDIT: So now we know that the 10/11 game is the Eagles. Better than the Pats, but it still sucks to lose a second good matchup.

It's gotta be a real pickle for the Jaguars coaching staff. He's the ultimate tweener. Too small to be very effective as a running down corner or a blitz threat. He looks like a stray breeze could carry him away. But also not a WR1 either. More of a slot receiver with some upside.

So maybe I understand why they want to use him both ways. But if they do it again the way they did in 2025 they'll get him killed. The dude is STILL rehabbing from a major injury he got the last time they used him like that.

Question though is how much can they really use him on the O? If they really go TE heavy there won't be many receiver slots on that field.

Maybe Jarrian Jones can teach Travis some of his special tackling techniques. Looking like you're trying without really doing too much. After all a guy could get hurt if he actually wrapped up one of them big brutes. Olay! 😆

What a mess.
