Happy Wednesday, everyone! Here’s all the Jacksonville Jaguars news that’s fit to print... around the Internet.
We’ve got Leonard Fournette news, a Day 3 draft pick that signals a big culture change in the locker room, and more.
Leonard Fournette is a part of the team’s plans moving forward
The Jacksonville Jaguars didn’t pick up Leonard Fournette’s fifth-year option, but they are going to be counting on his being a big part of their offense in 2020.
The Jaguars were shopping the fourth overall pick in 2017 for more than a month without any serious trade offers, and general manager Dave Caldwell told the PFT PM podcast on Monday that Fournette is part of the team’s plans going forward.

As the Jacksonville Jaguars wrapped up the 2020 NFL Draft with 12 new draftees (the most in franchise history) there was a common characteristic related to each and every guy — high character, no drama, hard workers.
It’s a clear cultural shift in the locker room by general manager Dave Caldwell and head coach Doug Marrone. They made a huge step in that direction with Auburn safety Daniel Thomas.

NFL cancels all international games in 2020
There will be no international games in the NFL this season.
Announced today, the league stated there will not be any international games played this season. All games will be heading back to the United States.
This includes the two “home” games the Jaguars were slated to play this season, now the team will likely play eight games in Jacksonville, barring a cancellation or delay of the season entirely.
Nearly half of polled Jaguars fans think offensive line is weakest position
