Tight ends are an important part of the Jaguars offense as designed by coordinator John DeFilippo. They were important in his last two stops – Philadelphia and Minnesota. It stands to reason the same thing will happen for this team in North Florida.
The Jaguars offense last year was pathetic. DeFilippo or “Flip” as his players and the coaching staff refer to him, has been put in charge. His job is to turn a very bad offense into (at least) a respectable offense. He has worked with new quarterback Nick Foles in the past and both he and Jacksonville’s newest leader on offense want to create something special.
