Jacksonville’s kicker today, Jon Brown, never has attempted a field goal in a game. Ever. A former soccer player, Brown was a kickoff specialist who spent time with the Bengals but has not attempted an in-game FG. Brown is the fifth kicker the Jaguars have used this season.

This is why James Robinson is the #Jaguars starting RB. Points out the blitz to Lawrence pre-snap then picks it up perfectly to give him time to convert the first third-down of the game.

Through 5 years, Josh Allen has: - Made 2 Pro Bowls - Set the Jaguars rookie sack record - Set the Jaguars single-season sack record - Is 11.5 sacks away from franchise's all-time sack record. I think you can make the argument that he is their best 1st round pick since Taylor.
