The final score isn’t necessarily the main thing to leave an exhibition game with, although Trevor Lawrence said that players want to win every time there’s a scoreboard on.
The depth production was nice, but the Jaguars need to see that from its No. 1s, especially with two joint practices with Detroit on Wednesday and Thursday.
“It was good to get back out there, get the juices flowing for us as an offense, especially the guys who are going to be starting, to get back out there, work out some of the kinks,” said receiver Christian Kirk, who caught a touchdown pass from Lawrence. “We know we weren’t the cleanest when we got out there. It was good to get out there, get some stuff on film be able to see where were at and where we need to get better going forward.
Fresh off a win in their preseason opener against the Cowboys, the Jaguars returned to training camp on Monday with a more relaxed practice at Miller Electric Center. It was a hot one in the afternoon as the Jaguars prepare to head to Detroit for two joint practices with the Lions. Jamal St. Cyr and Justin Barney recap what we liked from a win over the Cowboys and what to expect from this week's trip.
Play from guys who aren’t big names is a good thing to see, and it will be a major point of focus the rest of the preseason. Lawrence said after the game that this was the deepest that Jacksonville has been. And while it’s premature to say any bottom of the roster spots have been sewn up after just one week, the competition is going to make decisions far more difficult this season than a year ago.
