The Jacksonville Jaguars are set for a significant transformation in their defense for the second consecutive season. Under new defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile, the Jaguars aim to revitalize a unit that struggled immensely last year. Campanile, who has honed his skills under notable coaches including Vic Fangio, is focused on instilling a culture of aggression and tenacity in the Jaguars' defense. Although he did not specify a particular scheme, he emphasized the importance of a violent play style, highlighting the need for players to run to the ball and finish tackles aggressively.

Despite last season's poor performance, Campanile is excited about the existing talent on the roster, particularly the potential of edge rushers Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker, as well as key linebackers like Foyesade Oluokun and Tyson Campbell. He believes the young talent on the team can thrive with the right culture and mindset, setting the stage for a resurgence in Jacksonville's defensive capabilities this season.
