Arik Armstead's transition to the Jacksonville Jaguars has been somewhat tumultuous. In his first season, he was primarily played as a defensive end, which limited his effectiveness as a three-technique, a role where he previously excelled in San Francisco. As the Jaguars look to improve their defensive strategy, new defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile has promised to utilize Armstead's versatility more effectively, potentially deploying him in the three-technique position where he can maximize his skills.

Armstead's leadership is also a vital asset for the Jaguars, especially after winning the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award. Coach Liam Coen recognizes the need to leverage Armstead's strengths for a more robust run defense. The Jaguars' coaching staff appears committed to creating a scheme that capitalizes on Armstead's disruptive capabilities, which could be crucial for the team's success in the upcoming season.
