What did we see during the Jaguars' third padded practice?
Things got plenty of physical during the Jacksonville Jaguars' Friday training camp practice, with the offense and defense practicing goal line, short-yardage, and full tackling.
If there are two players who have seemingly caught fire after the offense's slow start to training camp, it has been second-year running back Tank Bigsby and rookie wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. Each made big plays during Friday's practice, giving plenty of reason for optimism about the development of both. While training camp practices are not always indicative of Sunday success, it is always better to see plays being made in practice as opposed to the opposite.
Star pass-rusher Josh Hines-Allen was a force on Friday, recording a tackle for loss and a pressure in team drills and then recording two tackle for losses during short-yardage drills. Hines-Allen looked like a man possessed on Friday, seemingly now being a player who even the Jaguars' top offensive linemen struggle with.
Lawrence and the offense absolutely had to figure this defense out and find a groove, but they have seemed to get some rhythm. Lawrence is hitting receivers in stride, receivers are getting open, and there have been fewer instances of holding onto the ball. It helps, of course, that Gabe Davis and Christian Kirk seemingly caught everything that went to them on the day. It was another step forward for the passing offense.The play of the day goes to rookie cornerback De'Antre Prince.
D.J. Coleman had an impressive day. He beat Cole Van Lanen for a would-be sack in team drills and made a nice stop in team drills.
