JACKSONVILLE — During free agency frenzy in March, Suzy Bortles’ cell phone buzzed frequently, updating her with push notifications specifically personalized to Jaguars news. After each free-agent signing, she quickly texted her son Blake to alert him about his team’s latest move and ask if this new Jaguar had any talent.

“My mom is my ESPN ticker,” Blake says, after a walkthrough at Jaguars’ facility on the day of the team’s open scrimmage at EverBank Field.
