As the NFL season nears its conclusion, struggling teams have more at stake than just draft positioning. Coaches, players, and front-office staff are under pressure to demonstrate their value.
Teams like the Jacksonville Jaguars must evaluate young talent like Parker Washington, while the Las Vegas Raiders need to assess Antonio Pierce's coaching capabilities. The New York Giants aim to improve their secondary, and the New England Patriots should focus on integrating young receivers.
Meanwhile, the Carolina Panthers hope for consistency from Bryce Young, the New York Jets are deciding on D.J. Reed's future, and the Tennessee Titans must determine Will Levis' potential. Lastly, the Cleveland Browns need to give Elijah Moore a chance to prove his worth for a new contract.
