The Jacksonville Jaguars have multiple talented players on defense. New defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen is excited about the possibilities.
The Jacksonville Jaguars enter the season with a new defensive coordinator calling the shots. Defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen has taken over a Jaguars defense with talent at multiple spots but needs help to put all the pieces together.Edge rusher Josh Hines-Allen enters his sixth year with the Jaguars and is coming off one of the best seasons of his career. Travon Walker is the former number one overall draft pick in the NFL Draft, who is still trying to live up to that draft spot.
“Very excited. Really good players,” Nielsen said. “We've done a really good job. Last preseason game was awesome to have them out together. You add Arik back in this, some of the Dtackles, we've got a good group. That group's got to play. They’ve got to play hard, and they’ve got to play tough. Those two guys, they’ve got to do a really good job on the edges of crushing the edge and be able to provide some pass rush.
