The Jacksonville Jaguars will come into Week 1 of the 2018 NFL season with 2/1 odds of winning the AFC South division. A bet on the Jaguars to win the 2019 Super Bowl pays US$2500 for every US$100 bet or US$250 for every US$10 bet.
What to Expect
Bad news for Jaguars fans as both Dante Fowler and Jalen Ramsey have been suspended for threats on the media.
Cornerback Ramsey and defensive end Fowler Jr. were involved in a post-practice altercation Sunday and Ramsey's profane rant directed toward the media filming the incident led to the suspension.
The team released a statement saying the two were suspended "for violating team rules and conduct unbecoming of a Jaguars football player."
Fowler got into an altercation with Yannick Ngakoue shortly after practice ended and the two players twice had to be separated by fellow defensive ends Calais Campbell and Carroll Phillips and defensive tackle Abry Jones. No punches were thrown.
Fowler later tweeted that he was "always going to stick up for my teammates kus I know what type of men and players they are forreal!
Fowler has twice previously gotten into training-camp altercations, both coming in 2016.
Fowler will miss the season opener as punishment for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, which stemmed from his July 2017 arrest and subsequent plea deal involving battery, criminal mischief, and petty theft charges.
Ramsey, the fifth overall pick in 2016, was a Pro Bowler and first-team All-Pro last season.
The NFL Betting Power Ratings suggest the line should be closer to Jacksonville -9 though this does not necessarily take into account any off season changes.
