The Jacksonville Jaguars have released their first depth chart of the 2024 season. Their preseason opener vs. the Kansas City Chiefs will commence this Saturday night.
As Jaguars defensive coordinator Ryan Nielson stated, the depth chart is "etched in sand." Depth charts are unofficial and, in many cases, fail to reflect what happens during the game.
The coaching staff, including head coach Doug Pederson, approves the depth chart, proving its value, but we should remain under the impression that this is a fluid factor.
“It’s going to start like that, yes. So, you’ll see a bunch of combinations. Even yesterday, we had guys that maybe didn’t play together in OTAs that were out there. We always—the best combination of players. Here’s what we’re looking for ultimately when we evaluate: did the player win the rep? At each position," Nielsen said in July.
The depth chart released by the team has a few things out of place, particularly the rookies.
Anton Harrison, Ezra Cleveland, Keilan Robinson, and Steven Jones are OUT on offense.
Jordan Jefferson, Arik Armstead, Dewey Wingard, and Darnell Savage are OUT on defense.
Without further ado, here is the Jaguars depth chart for the preseason game with the Kansas City Chiefs.
