5 takeaways from Day 6 of Jags training camp

5 takeaways from Day 6 of Jags training camp

With the Jacksonville Jaguars making it to Day 6 of training camp, the team had its first fully padded practice on Sunday. Needless to say, that made it an eventful day for the Jags, especially when it came to 1-on-1 drills.

The circumstances made it a day where the offensive and defensive linemen were more of a focal point, and several players the Jags paid well this offseason like Brandon Scherff, Cam Robinson, and Travon Walker stood out, as did veteran Josh Allen. Then when it came to team drills, the big story was the slow start the offense got off to before closing practice on a high note in the last 11-on-11 showdown.

With all of that in mind, here are the top takeaways from Sunday’s practice:

Travon Walker and Josh Allen stand out again after also flashing on Day 5

Jacksonville Jaguars outside linebacker Travon Walker (44) participates in an offseason running past outside linebacker Josh Allen (41) training activity Tuesday, May 31, 2022 at TIAA Bank Field in Jacksonville. Both Walker and Allen flashed yesterday in shells on Day 5, but on Day 6, they didn’t let up.

Simply put, it seems like Allen has been one of the most consistent players for the Jags since camp started. On Sunday, he took advantage of the ramped- up intensity. News4Jax’s Jamal St. Cyr said the veteran made “quick work of the lineman he went against” in 1-on-1 drills. However, St. Cyr did add that Allen was stopped on one rep (which came against Walker Little) but looked solid otherwise.

Here are some of the many tweets that were released through practice about the fourth-year player.

Walker, who has long been ready for the pads to go on, didn’t want to be outshined by Allen it seems. He impressed in 1-on-1s and also made a play in team drills where he beat a double team and swatted down one of Lawrence’s passes.

Obviously, it’s not going to be a perfect transition for Walker as he’s learning a lot of new things on the NFL level, but his first day in pads seemed promising. Of course, he’s going to have to develop more moves on the pro level, but in the early stages of padded practices, he’s showing that he can utilize the tools that he has well.

Brandon Scherff shows why he’s getting paid the big bucks
