The Jacksonville Jaguars and the rest of the NFL must have their 53-man rosters set by 4:00 PM ET on Tuesday. The Jaguars have already gotten an early jump on their roster reshaping, and it didn't come in the form of a release but rather a trade, with Jacksonville sending Fred Johnson to Philadelphia.

After an influx of new players in the offseason the Jaguars will certainly have a new look in 2025. There are 24 new names in the 53-man final roster projection, including six offensive linemen, two running backs, two tight ends, and four defensive linemen.

Players on the Jacksonville Jaguars backup defense helped themselves against the Miami Dolphins starters in their preseason game on Aug. 23.

In that vein, new head coach Liam Coen had decided that he was comfortable with what his starters showed in their first two preseason games, training camp, and practices, and chose to hold them out of the final exhibition against the Miami Dolphins. Instead, Jacksonville got an in-depth look at some of its young players on the cusp of the roster.
