Training camp is officially here for the Jacksonville Jaguars, with players hitting the grass early Wednesday morning to begin what is expected to be a resurgence season for the local team.
Jaguars rookies reported to camp Saturday, July 19, with veterans reporting Tuesday, July 22. The Jaguars will enter this year’s camp with a lot of new faces, particularly on the coaching staff.
Jaguars owner Shad Khan decided this year to move on from former head coach Doug Pederson and general manager Trent Baalke, moving forward with a youth movement centered around general manager James Gladstone and head coach Liam Coen. Both Gladstone and Coen are under 40 years old to start camp.
The franchise also changed directions as far as the team’s organizational structure is concerned, hiring Hall of Fame offensive lineman Tony Boselli as the team’s EVP of Football Operations. Boselli was the team’s first draft choice after becoming an expansion franchise ahead of the 1995 season.
With that said, Jaguars fans will get several opportunities to see the new team during camp this summer. Many tickets are still available for several dates, including the team’s first practice on Wednesday.
Ahead of camp starting on Wednesday, the Jaguars announced that linebacker Dennis Gardeck will begin training camp on the team’s active/Physically Unable to Perform list. Gardeck will not be eligible to practice until he is removed from the list.
