Jaguars reveal final preseason depth chart with small tweaks

The Jaguars revealed their third and final depth chart of the 2024 preseason Tuesday, making a few minor changes on the defensive line but otherwise leaving the lineup untouched ahead of their August finale against the Falcons in Atlanta Friday.

Find Jacksonville’s newest depth chart below.

Adjustments were made only to the Jaguars’ defensive end positions.

Joe Gaziano and Breeland Speaks were added to each edge-rushing spot, with Gaziano on the third team behind Travon Walker and Trevis Gipson and Speaks on the fourth team behind Josh Hines-Allen, D.J. Coleman and Raymond Johnson.

Gaziano, who signed with Jacksonville Friday and recorded a game-sealing sack against Tampa Bay Saturday, replaced Rasheem Green on the chart, who the Jaguars cut when they signed Gaziano.

Speaks signed with the Jaguars two days before their first preseason matchup, against Kansas City on Aug. 10, waiving Dixon with an injury designation at the same time.

Dixon is now on Jacksonville’s injured reserve, although he was featured in the lineup last week while Speaks was omitted.

Speaks has recorded 1.5 sacks in 21 snaps of preseason playing time with the Jaguars.

Coleman and Johnson were each promoted, up one spot at defensive end, following Dixon’s removal from the second team and Speaks’ addition at the bottom of the list. Gaziano succeeded Green on the third team, stepping in front of seventh-round rookie and fourth-team EDGE Myles Cole.

The Jaguars and Falcons will kick off at 7 p.m. ET on Friday, at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Ga.
