AFC Notes: Jaguars, Texans, Titans

Jaguars

  • Jaguars HC Doug Pederson said he wanted all of his coaches to have NFL experience in order to have assistants with deep knowledge of the game. (John Reid)
  • John Reid notes that DC Mike Caldwell has an โ€œaggressive coaching styleโ€ and plans to move around DE Josh Allen, DE Kโ€™Lavon Chaisson, and their safeties group in blitz packages.  
  • Jaguars OC Press Taylor said he plans on getting Etienne involved: โ€œSomewhere with the ball in his hands.โ€ (John Shipley)
  • Should the Eagles look to trade WR Jalen Reagor this offseason, Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice thinks Jaguars DE Kโ€™Lavon Chaisson would be a suitable exchange given Philadelphia needs an edge rusher and Jacksonville needs depth at receiver. 
  • Kempski mentions that Chaisson was drafted by former Jaguars GM Dave Caldwell, who is now a personnel executive for the Eagles. 

Texans

  • Texans DL Roy Lopez said he was excited to see Lovie Smith promoted from defensive coordinator to head coach: โ€œIt was awesome. We were all excited. For a while there he wasnโ€™t a candidate. When it came out, we were like, โ€˜Thatโ€™s easy. Thatโ€™s nice. We can play for Lovie.โ€™ It was nice for Lovie to take the step. That way last year was a stepping stone.โ€ (Aaron Wilson)
  • Lopez said he is looking forward to working with new DL coach Jacques Cesaire: โ€œYou can feel when someone loves football and lives for football. He wants the best out of us. Weโ€™re looking forward to playing for him.โ€ (Aaron Wilson)
