Every game gets a JustJ pick — ATS side and total. Posted numbers are used the moment books hang them; until then the pick is quoted on the JustJ line and refreshes each week.
Schedule & market notes
- Bye: Week 7 — a mid-season bye, giving a roughly even split on either side.
- Short-week / non-Sunday games: 1 Thursday, 1 Monday — short-rest games carry their own well-documented ATS variance, worth flagging on your calendar as they approach.
- International game(s): Week 5 vs Philadelphia Eagles (London); Week 6 vs Houston Texans (London) — a true road game with no home-field advantage and real short-week/travel logistics even when technically the “home” team.

Power ratings & 2025 results
- 2025 record: 13-4-0 — Points For 474, Points Against 336 (differential +138).
- Margin of Victory: +8.1 pts/game — the average scoring margin across all 2025 games, win or lose.
- Strength of Schedule (SoS): +0.6 — Pro-Football-Reference's SRS-based measure of 2025 opponent quality; positive means a tougher slate than average.
- SRS (power rating): +8.7 — Simple Rating System score, which converts directly to a projected point spread on a neutral field against a leagueaverage team.
- Offensive SRS: +5.4 · Defensive SRS: +3.4 — the SRS power rating split into offensive and defensive components; higher offensive and higher defensive figures are both better.
- Turnover differential: +13 — total takeaways minus giveaways across the 2025 season, one of the more volatile year-to-year metrics and worth weighing against the rest of this profile rather than on its own.

Key Offensive Line

Key Defensive Line
Edge Josh Hines-AllenKentucky
5 yr / $141.25M extension, $88M guaranteed; ~$28.25M AAV. 8th NFL season; the franchise's all-time sack leader and a perennial double-digit-sack producer.
Edge Travon WalkerGeorgia
still on his rookie-scale extension window (2022 No. 1 overall pick); extension talks ongoing. 5th NFL season; back-to-back double-digit-sack seasons have made him a near-lock for a big new contract.
DT Arik ArmsteadOregon
3 yr / $43.5M free-agent signing; ~$14.5M AAV. 12th NFL season; a veteran interior presence brought in to bolster the run defense.
Key Linebackers
LB Devin LloydUtah
still on his rookie-scale extension window (2022 1st-round pick), entering a contract year. 5th NFL season; a Pro Bowl snub after 2025 and one of the more important extension decisions on the roster.
LB Chad MumaWyoming
returning depth linebacker; 4th NFL season, part of the rotation alongside Lloyd in Jacksonville's second level.
LB Jack KiserNotre Dame
core special-teamer working into more of a defensive role; 3rd NFL season, providing depth behind the starting duo.
Key Defensive Backs
CB Tyson CampbellGeorgia
4 yr / $76.5M extension; ~$19.1M AAV. 6th NFL season; the Jaguars' CB1 and a foundational piece of the secondary.
CB Jarrian JonesFlorida State
still on his rookie contract (2024 3rd-round pick). 3rd NFL season; a starting-caliber corner opposite Campbell.
S Andre CiscoSyracuse
returning starting safety; 6th NFL season, a ball-hawking veteran and one of the longer-tenured pieces on Jacksonville's defense. A FC SO UT H JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS

Weekly fantasy scoring for these players appears here once 2026 games go final — each week's points are graded in standard 12-team scoring and rolled into the actual FPPG above.
Environment
- Home games: outdoor stadium — late-season (Dec./Jan.) home dates carry real weather risk for passing-game and kicking volume.
- Road dome/retractable-roof games: ideal weather-neutral spots for maximum fantasy production: Wk 15 (Houston Texans), Wk 16 (Dallas Cowboys), Wk 18 (Indianapolis Colts).
- 2025 recap: Brian Thomas Jr. broke out as a top-tier fantasy WR, Trevor Lawrence was efficient behind an improved offense, and Travis Etienne's departure clears the early-down role heading into 2026.
- 2026 projection: Thomas Jr. enters the year as a locked-in WR1. Lawrence projects as a solid streaming-caliber QB2 with real upside. Tuten inherits a full early-down role but faces real rookie/backfield-share risk as he takes over from Etienne.
- Brian Thomas Jr.: Pro: elite big-play ability and clear WR1 target volume. Con: touchdown-dependent scoring can create some week-to-week variance.
- Trevor Lawrence: Pro: an improved offense under Liam Coen with real weapons around him. Con: still finding full consistency; not a true weekly must-start.
- Bhayshul Tuten: Pro: inherits the clear early-down role after Etienne's departure. Con: unproven workload and real touchdown competition near the goal line. A FC SO UT H JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS
