In 2019, the Jacksonville Jaguars had an otherwise mediocre and largely irrelevant 6–10 season that won't be memorable for most NFL fans. There are a few reasons Jags fans will remember it, though, and I'm about to tell you how it relates to the 2025 Cleveland Browns.
Those Jaguars entered the season with a veteran free-agent addition in the form of Nick Foles leading the way at quarterback, just two years removed from his magical Super Bowl run with the Eagles. It's not all that different from the Browns rolling with Joe Flacco to start this year's campaign, two years off the improbable playoff run he engineered for Cleveland in 2023.
