Tom Coughlin took a not-so-subtle shot at two of Jacksonville’s top defenders https://www.jaguarsfanstore.com/Will-Richardson-Jersey , cornerback Jalen Ramsey and linebacker Telvin Smith, for skipping voluntary workouts.The team’s executive vice president of football operations said Thursday that “championship teams are dominated by selfless individuals who recognize that the welfare of the team must always be paramount to any other consideration.”Ramsey and Smith are the team’s only players who didn’t show up for the start of the team’s offseason program. Coach Doug Marrone said he reached out to both players and didn’t hear back from either one.Ramsey also skipped voluntary workouts last year, choosing instead to spend the offseason working out at his father’s training facility in Nashville, Tennessee.Smith’s absence was more surprising, especially since he’s been in attendance each of his first five years in the league.More Jacksonville Jaguars newsJaguars will be without starting CB A.J.

The hard work that many try to avoid is the major building block for the development of an outstanding football team.“It’s not about rights and privileges. It’s about obligations and responsibility. And the question is, can we count on you? Doing the things the right way all the time; we are what we repeatedly do. Excellence therefore is not an act Andrew Norwell Jersey , but a habit.”The Jaguars lost 10 of their final 12 games in 2018 and finished 5-11, the seventh time in the past eight years the small-market franchise ended up with double-digit losses.Marrone made it clear after the season that he placed a high value on having everyone together in the offseason, partly to build chemistry and partly to make sure everyone gets in the best shape possible.Coughlin echoed those thoughts while speaking at the state of the franchise address Thursday.“Discipline, organizing your priorities, committing yourself to doing the things necessary to succeed https://www.jaguarsfanstore.com/Austin-Seferian-Jenkins-Jersey ,” he said. “No shortcuts. No procrastination.“Discipline is the refined fire by which talent becomes ability. The only discipline that lasts is self-discipline. The reason people run from the word discipline is because it’s difficult to master.” The Jacksonville Jaguars managed just one sack on Patrick Mahomes in their 30-14 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs yesterday, but it helped propel Yannick Ngakoue higher into the franchise record books.With a late second quarter chase down and sack on Sunday, Ngakoue is now tied for seventh in Jaguars history with 22.0 sacks, tied with Bobby McCray and Marcus Stroud.To give you some sort of context of how good 22.0 sacks in 37 career games is, that’s a sack every 0.59 games. Tony Brackens Niles Paul Color Rush Jersey , the franchise sack leader, finished with 55.0 sacks in 107 career games — one sack every 0.51 games. Only Calais Campbell (17.5 sacks in 21 games for a sack every 0.83 games) has a higher average.Ngakoue needs just one more sack to surpass Gary Walker (22.5), seven more sacks to surpass Kevin Hardy and Gary Walker (28.5), and eight more sacks to surpass John Henderson (29.0) to get into the top three.Joel Smeenge sits at second with 34.0 sacks and Brackens has 55.0 sacks.
