After a productive offseason, the Jacksonville Jaguars are refocusing on their defensive line, specifically the defensive ends. Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker have both trimmed down to their natural playing weights, which they believe will enhance their performance in the upcoming season. Last year, Hines-Allen's weight hit 285 pounds, which he found taxing and less effective. Walker echoed similar sentiments, noting that his excess weight impacted his endurance towards the end of the season.

Both players are looking to return to their optimal forms under new defensive coaches Liam Coen and Anthony Campanile, who have emphasized the importance of playing at natural weights for improved agility and pass-rushing capabilities. The defensive ends face a critical year ahead, as they aim to contribute significantly to the Jaguars' defensive strategy.
