Their linebacker corps, led by star Foye Oluokun and Devin Lloyd, is viewed as a strong component of their defense, with Oluokun being a key leadership figure when healthy. The Jaguars' defense also features promising talent in the linebacking unit that excels in coverage and quarterback pressure. Meanwhile, former Jaguars cornerback Tre Herndon recently signed with the Indianapolis Colts, providing experienced depth to their secondary following an injury to Jaylon Jones.
