When the Jacksonville Jaguars took Devin Lloyd with the No. 27 overall pick last April, they did so with the intention of him becoming an impact player on the defense for years to come.Through three games it is evident that the Jaguars made the right choice. In only three career games, Pro Football Focus ranks Lloyd seventh among linebackers with a 78.2 overall grade. He has been especially disruptive in the running game, with his 88.5 grade on run defense ranking second at the position.

We started the game again today with a couple of turnovers. We didnt get the points off of them - I would have loved to have gotten a touchdown off, especially the one down deep in the red zone. Listen, the defense, if they keep creating turnovers like theyre doing, obviously it helps the football team and it helps the offense so we can Carl Davis Jersey score points, good things will continue to happen.Star-level production from Devin Lloyd has been a major catalyst for a revitalized Jaguars defensive unit and a huge culprit for why this team is sitting at 2-1 through the first three weeks of the season.
