The Jacksonville Jaguars had one player to represent them in the NFLPA Rookie Premiere this week and that was No. 1 pick, Travon Walker. Part of the annual event involves a photoshoot for those who attend as well as an opportunity to be featured on Panini’s rookie trading card series.
Walker’s trading card was one of the few that have been revealed on the web and fans now have their first real preview of him in a Jags uniform.
Here is a look at Travon Walker's first NFL Trading Card.

If this doesn’t make fans reflect on some of the fearsome defenses and defenders the Jags have had in the past, I don’t know what does.
The Jags took Walker first overall in April’s draft after their defense struggled and ranked 20th overall and 23rd against the run. The hope is that Walker can help the Jags against the elite rushers they face in the AFC South, while also giving the Jags a pass-rushing threat to help Josh Allen.
For fans who are interested in purchasing a card for memorabilia purposes, they will go on sale on Panini’s site in 14 days for $9.99. They can also be purchased in quantities of five, 10, and 25.
