When one talks about the best up-and-coming quarterbacks in the NFL, Lawrence’s name is one that always pops up in this conversation.
Can the Jaguars Bounce Back This Coming Season?
The Jacksonville Jaguars are in a competitive AFC South. The Indianapolis Colts are always competitive, and the Houston Texans are only going to improve with C.J. Stroud at the quarterback position. Especially since the Texans just added Stefon Diggs this offseason. Even the Tennessee Titans are a team one cannot overlook, despite some of their struggles.
As for the Jaguars, they have made a few key moves this offseason. They signed wide receiver, Gabe Davis, who should help fill the void left by Calvin Ridley. Jacksonville also added Arik Armstead and Mitch Morse. Two additions that could go down as a couple of the best signings of the offseason. The talent is there for the Jaguars to bounce back and reclaim the AFC South. However, the Houston Texans are also hungry and have a young signal caller who is set to have a promising career.
