Anton Harrison is sidelined by a lower-body issue, impacting Jacksonville’s tackle depth as the team guards the edge against Saints pressure. His absence elevates Cole Van Lanen and others to extended action and can shape how Jacksonville's protection holds up in preseason. Harrison’s status is pivotal for Week 1, as the line’s stability feeds Lawrence’s baseline output and the offense’s overall efficiency.

Harrison’s start and the line’s uptick signal improvement in pass protection and run blocking. The shift to a largely vanilla game plan masked some explosiveness, but Harrison’s presence in the lineup is a long-term boost for Lawrence’s comfort and Jacksonville’s pocket integrity.

Harrison’s absence opened reps for Mekari at right guard and Edoga at interior spots; his return could affect the guard-tackle rotation and overall line stability.

Harrison’s early penalty aside, the right tackle held up well in pass protection and helped sustain a productive environment for Lawrence’s progression reads.

Harrison, the Jaguars’ presumed left tackle, opened with a false start that flagged the team’s preseason discipline issues. His early penalty sets a tone for the line's readiness, but also signals a fixable mechanical flaw in pre-snap tempo. His performance in subsequent snaps will matter for Lawrence’s protection and the run game’s early efficiency, making Harrison a key watch in next practices and scrimmages.
