Joeckel is finding his groove during padded practices

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Entering his third NFL season, the pressure is on for Jacksonville Jaguars left tackle Luke Joeckel.

The former No. 2 overall pick hasn't necessarily lived up to his hype but every season offers a new opportunity to change that.

Joeckel had a rough start to training camp in the first two practices, but since pads have been introduced to his routine, he has excelled. On Monday, he was able to shine with extremely limited reps in full pads.

"I feel like every offensive lineman-defensive lineman drill, they're more in place with pads on," said Joeckel.
