Jacksonville Jaguars’ playoff hopes hinge on protecting Trevor Lawrence—can the offensive line stay healthy and up to the challenge? Tony Wiggins spotlights the critical importance of keeping Lawrence upright while questioning whether backup quarterback Nick Mullens inspires enough confidence to keep the team afloat if Lawrence misses time. The debate intensifies as recent preseason performances raise alarms about depth and reliability behind the starter.

Key talking points include Anton Harrison’s promising move to left tackle, concerns over offensive line injuries to Walker Little and Chuma Edoga, and the Jaguars’ conscious gamble on Mullens as QB2. Tony Wiggins also explores why quarterback depth, often overlooked until disaster strikes, could dictate the outcome of Jacksonville’s 2026 campaign. With a tougher schedule and growing expectations, how many games can the Jaguars afford to risk at the backup position before their season is derailed?
