Walker Little is definitely entering his last season with the Jaguars

You could argue that Cam Robinson deserves a spot on this list, but the truth is that the Jaguars hold him in high reward. Even though they could've released him to free up $17 million in cap space, they chose to keep him around and expect him to be on the roster in 2024.

It's possible that Jacksonville will trade Robinson if they get an offer they like but they're seemingly fine going with him as their starting next tackle next season. Meanwhile, Walker Little has struggled to carve a role on offense the past there years.

Little, a second-round pick in 2021, spent most of his rookie season on the sidelines but flashed when he saw the field. With Robinson slated to become a free agent in 2022, the Texas native seemed like an appealing choice to replace him. However, he ended up competing with Jawaan Taylor for the right tackle job after the front office gave Robinson a long-term deal.

Although Little took things to the wire, he ended up losing to Taylor and spent most of 2022 as the primary backup at offensive tackle. He once again got an opportunity near the end of the season, starting five games (including two in the playoffs) in relief of Robinson.

Despite making the most of his chance, Little failed to seize a starting job in Jacksonville. He stepped in Robinson's place and made four starts but was consistently moved around, which prevented him from hitting his stride.

Little is now entering a contract year, and it doesn't look like the Jaguars have found a role for him. With Robinson and sophomore Anton Harrison slated to start on the edges, he'll once again be the swing tackle. When you factor in that the Jags used a fourth-round pick on Javon Foster, Little's odds of coming back next season don't look great.
