Three Jaguars position battles to watch
Running back: Undrafted rookie J'Mari Taylor had a big game vs. New Orleans. Veteran Ameer Abdullah stood out last
week against Carolina. DeeJay Dallas is still in the mix. This game might determine who gets the fourth spot in the position room.
Right tackle: Walker Little appears set as the starter. But backup Chuma Edoga hasn't always been healthy, leaving the door open for eight-year veteran Geron Christian Sr. and undrafted rookie Jimto Obidegwu.
Defensive tackle: It's been a nice battle for the main backup to Arik Armstead between Matt Dickerson and Ruke Orhorhoro. Both made flashy plays in practice this past week.
