Should I Start Jordan Davis?

The Jacksonville Jaguars have been busy making moves with the NFL trade deadline coming on Tuesday. In their latest move to bolster the interior of their defensive line, Jacksonville acquired defensive tackle Jordan Davis from the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a package that includes a first-round pick, sources told NFL insider Jordan Schultz. Per ESPN, the Jags sent a 2027 first-rounder and a 2029 second-round pick for Davis after already acquiring safety Jessie Bates III from the Atlanta Falcons and defensive tackle Davon Godchaux from the New Orleans Saints on Monday. The 26-year-old Davis is under contract through the 2029 season after signing a three-year, $78 million contract extension earlier this year that included $64.4 million guaranteed. He is one of the best young interior pass-rushers in the league after posting career highs in sacks (4.5), tackles for loss (nine), QB hits (six), tackles (72), and passes defended (six) last year. Davis has not been as strong in 2026, but he will definitely be a boost for a Jaguars team that has a three-game lead in the AFC South going into a Week 10 divisional tilt against the Tennessee Titans.
