One former Jacksonville Jaguars defender made ESPN’s All-Quarter Century team.
Recently, Aaron Schatz and Seth Walder constructed a 53-man roster made up of the best players over the last 25 years in the NFL.
Included among the defensive tackles was Calais Campbell, who played with Jacksonville from 2017 through 2019. Joining Campbell at the tackle position are Aaron Donald and Chris Jones.
“Though Campbell has had the benefit of a 17-year (and counting!) career, his numbers are truly quite remarkable,” wrote Walder. “He’s only one sack shy of passing Donald’s career total, while his total plus-EPA ranks fourth among all players and first among interior defenders.”
In his three seasons with the Jaguars, Campbell made the Pro Bowl each year and was a first-team All-Pro in 2017, along with being the runner-up in the Defensive Player of the Year voting that season as well.
Campbell appeared in 48 games during that span and was a key member up front in that Sacksonville defense. He went on to produce six forced fumbles, 31.5 sacks, 195 tackles, and 77 quarterback hits from 2017-2019.
During his All-Pro season with the Jaguars, Campbell had 14.5 sacks and 30 quarterback hits in that season alone.
Since then, Campbell has spent three seasons with Baltimore, one with Atlanta, one with Miami, and he is back with Arizona for the 2025 season.
Over his career, Campbell is a six-time Pro Bowler, a one-time All-Pro, and is a member of the All-2010s team.
