The Jacksonville Jaguars took defensive end K’Lavon Chaisson with the 20th overall pick of the 2020 NFL Draft with the intention of giving their pass rush a boost. However, the LSU product didn’t have a big impact and ended up being a non-factor last season. However, he has a chance to turn things around in his sophomore campaign.

Chris Roling of Bleacher Report believes Chaisson is one of several second-year players that can avoid the bust label in 2021 after notching just one sack in 2020 and posting a Pro Football Focus overall grade of 49.
