What can Devin Lloyd provide for the Jaguars in 2024?
Welcome to the second installment of my weekly ‘Jaguars’ Stat of the Week’, a series in which I find one statistic to represent the team or one of its players in order to provide further context into who the team or player really is, beyond the perception and narratives.Expectations can be high for first-round picks entering the league. First-rounders are often envisioned to be able to slide right into the starting lineups, becoming impact players from day one. It’s a tough ask for any player.
Even more impressive, Lloyd might have led the league in interceptions as well, if not for his injury and the club he played with for much of this past season. It certainly was a hindrance as Lloyd dropped three would-be interceptions due to his physical limitations. Pro Football Focus has certainly taken notice of Lloyd’s improved play on the field. In 2023, PFF rated Lloyd as the 4th best run-defender at the position and also viewed him favorably in zone coverage as well, posting a grade of 80.2, 7th best amidst a field of 84.
