Following the initial wave of NFL free agency, what does the Jacksonville Jaguars' current starting offensive lineup look like?
Overall, it's been a quiet free agency period for the Jaguars. The one outside free agent addition made by the Jaguars took place on the offensive side of the ball, with the team signing running back Chris Rodriguez.
GM James Gladstone recently explained the reason behind this free agency approach.
What this lineup looks like today may not be what it will look like come training camp, with additions still able to be made and the NFL draft taking place. But what this exercise does do is provide us with insight into the current state of the Jaguars' roster.
Quarterback: Trevor Lawrence
No mystery here.
Running back: Bhayshul Tuten and Chris Rodriguez
As of now, my guess is that these two do share the workload. On paper, someone will be RB1, but I expect to see a lot of both players this season, with LeQuint Allen taking over on passing downs as he did last season.
Tight end: Brenton Strange
Under Liam Coen, we saw our fair share of two-tight-end sets as well. In those personnel groupings, we can expect to see Quintin Morris on the field with Strange.
Wide receiver: Jakobi Meyers, Parker Washington, Brian Thomas Jr.
Travis Hunter will see receiver snaps as well, but an early report tells us that he will be a full-time cornerback and a part-time wide receiver.
Offensive line: Cole Van Lanen, Ezra Cleveland, Robert Hainsey, Patrick Mekari, Anton Harrison
I'll play it safe and go chalk with this one, but I do expect that we see a lot of competition up front this summer, particularly along the interior at guard and center. The offensive line has to do a better job of paving running lanes this season.
