The Jacksonville Jaguars were named a potential landing spot for Detroit Lions’ free agent defensive tackle Levi Onwuzurike by Pro Football Focus.
“Onwuzurike is the penetrating 3-technique interior pass-rusher that every team covets,” wrote PFF’s Mason Cameron. “And given how ineffective the Jaguars’ interior pass rush was in 2024 — having ranked dead last in pass-rush win rate by defensive tackles (8.9%) — he will undoubtedly be a target for new defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile’s defense.”
Onwuzurike is coming off a career season with the Lions, recording 47 pressures and three sacks. Among all defensive tackles, Onwuzurike ranked 18th in pass rush win rate and was 21st in run defense grade.
As Cameron noted, the interior defensive line play for the Jaguars could very much improve in 2025. Potentially helping that unit will be Arik Armstead, who is looking to move back to the defensive tackle spot.
According to Pro Football Reference, the Jaguars’ defense as a whole ranked 30th in pressure rate in 2024 and were 15th in yards per rush allowed.
PFF is projecting that Onwuzurike lands a two-year deal in free agency worth $16.5 million.
The Jaguars currently have $32.27 million in available cap space, according to Over the Cap, which ranks as the 17th most–although they have the means to create quite a bit more room if needed.
