Five Jacksonville Jaguars who must shine to upset Titans in Week 5
With all the drama surrounding head coach Urban Meyer, it can be easy to forget the Jacksonville Jaguars will face off against the Tennesse Titans in Week 5. While the Jags are still looking for their first win of the 2021 season, the Titans want to avoid giving away their small lead of the division.
That’s right, the AFC South doesn’t look particularly great right now. The Houston Texans have lost three straight games after beating Jacksonville in the season opener while the Indianapolis Colts won their first game of the year in Week 4. Also, the Titans don’t particularly great at this moment, so this is a great time for the Jags to gain some ground in the division.
The Jaguars have shown flashes in the last two weeks but not enough to come away with a victory. This could change in Week 5 if these five players shine against Tennessee.
Jacksonville Jaguars player who must shine No. 1 – Dan Arnold
Head coach Urban Meyer wanted to sign tight end Dan Arnold in free agency but ultimately couldn’t lure him. Looking at the impact he had in his first game after being traded, it’s easy to see why.
Against the Cincinnati Bengals, Arnold played 18 snaps and hauled in two passes for 29. This kind of production doesn’t look great at first but you have to take into account that he joined the team just three days before the game. With more time to get familiarized with the offense, he should have an even bigger role against the Titans.
