Jaguars Elevate Brenton Strange As Key Offensive Tight End

The Jacksonville Jaguars are entering the 2025 season with significant changes in their offense, particularly at the tight end position following Evan Engram's departure. Brenton Strange has emerged as the starting tight end and is expected to play a versatile role that includes both receiving and blocking duties, differentiating him from Engram's primarily receiving role. Jaguars GM James Gladstone and Strange himself emphasize his versatility as a key asset for the offense moving forward. Meanwhile, quarterback Trevor Lawrence is adapting to offensive coordinator Liam Coen's complex and challenging playbook, showing growth in his confidence and technical skills such as footwork, which is tied closely to the timing of plays. The team’s young talent, including players like Brian Thomas Jr. and Travis Hunter, is contributing to a promising training camp under the new coaching regime. Overall, the Jaguars are focused on building chemistry and adjusting to the new offense as they prepare for the season.
