Depth Chart Calls

Rashawn Slater to be 1st on the depth chart

Travis Hunter to be 1st on the depth chart

But we might now be getting closer and close to Hunter finally being annointed as the Jaguars' top cornerback, a role that has seemingly been waiting for him ever since the Jaguars traded up to select him in the 2026 NFL Draft.

Mason Rudolph to be 2nd on the depth chart
