## Resource

The Jacksonville Jaguars’ outside linebacker battle is heating up behind starter Dennis Gardeck, with second-year rookie Jalen McLeod and veteran Yasir Abdullah locked in for a high-stakes showdown. McLeod, a sixth-rounder sidelined by injury last year, brings untapped pass-rush potential, while Abdullah, a fifth-rounder in his contract year, dominates special teams but lacks defensive depth. With only one backup spot likely to survive, this isn’t just about roster depth—it’s about who can step in and deliver when Gardeck’s versatility is needed most.
