Jaguars Hold First EverBank Stadium Scrimmage as Coen Tests Offensive, Defensive Depth

The Jacksonville Jaguars, under rookie head coach Liam Coen, have been actively developing their team during training camp, highlighted by a recent scrimmage at EverBank Stadium. Coen treated the scrimmage like a real game to familiarize himself and the staff with NFL operations, while quarterback Trevor Lawrence impressed with sharp decision-making and a strong passing performance. Wide receiver and cornerback Travis Hunter showcased his versatility by playing on both sides of the ball, earning praise from Coen for operating at a high level. Despite Coen's success as an offensive play caller last season, ESPN ranked the Jaguars coaching staff near the bottom due to their overall inexperience, though there is optimism about the staff’s potential. Coen's offensive scheme emphasizes multiplicity and options, which has contributed to Lawrence's growing confidence and comfort in the offense. Overall, the Jaguars appear to be building a foundation with promising talent and coaching, despite some early growing pains and external skepticism of their staff's inexperience.
