JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Jacksonville Jaguars entered training camp this week with most starting positions already seemingly secured. There were some exceptions, though, and one interesting potential exception was the right guard spot. It is the right guard spot that, though three days of training camp, has taken the most interesting turn in camp. The linebacker battle is still raging on between Ventrell Miller and Branson Combs and the running back battle has not been realized due to Chris Rodriguez Jr.'s return timeline, both expected outcomes early in camp. But at right guard, there has been a different story entirely.Jacksonville Jaguars guard Wyatt Milum (64), left, drills on guard Sal Wormley (61) during a rookie minicamp at Miller Electric Center Saturday, May 10, 2025 in Jacksonville, Fla.

But things have played out a bit differently to start camp, and it seems like that could be the new normal at right guard. Mekari has been limited in practice in terms of team reps through the first three days of camp, and it has been Milum who has instead seen the most snaps at the right guard spot next to Anton Harrison. Milum, the Jaguars' third-round pick a year ago, entered the spring's offseason program 100% healthy after battling injuries as a rookie and he now seems to be taking advantage of the oppurtunity in front of him.

Like, that's just different," Liam Coen said on Friday. "When you get reps and Trevor's talking to you and you're protecting for Trevor [QB Trevor Lawrence] and you're working with the first group, it's definitely a little bit more of a heightened sense of urgency, and I'm pleased with the way Wyatt's responded so far.”That is not to say that Milum is now the favorite to start at right guard or is gaining a lead at the position. Pads are not even on in camp yet, and Mekari should still be expected back sooner rather than later. Mekari was the Jaguars' big fish in free agency a year ago, though he sustained injuries throughout the season that limited him a year ago. Now, the Jaguars are making sure to work him back into the mix of things the right way, even if that means limited reps. "I mean, Patrick, we're trying to be smart. It's a long year. It's a long camp. He's a pros pro. He's not going to miss a beat in terms of knowing what he has to do, the scheme, the concepts, all that. I mean, love to get him more, but it's smart. I think it's the right thing to do, and I'm not worried about him," Coen said.
