Ferguson, who holds college football’s all-time career sacks record, flashed last week during the joint practices with the Jaguars and rolled that into Thursday night’s preseason opener, where he recorded a tackle for loss.
“I really liked what we saw from Jaylon Ferguson,” Defensive Coordinator Wink Martindale said Sunday. “He’s just going to get more and more playing time. He made it simple, just being physical with the man across from him. He wasn’t thinking about 10 other things, which rookies do. You saw a lot of good rushes, and you saw his power, which we’ve been looking for in training camp going against somebody else.
