The Jacksonville Jaguars and New England Patriots are about as far apart in terms of success as any two NFL franchises could be, but the two teams will be on the same field earlier than most thought. Before their first preseason game on August 10, the Patriots will host the Jaguars for practices Monday, August 7 and Tuesday, August 8.
Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone made a statement about the practices:
“Having the opportunity to practice with the defending world champions to begin our preseason schedule will be beneficial for our football team,” said Jaguars Head Coach Doug Marrone.
