The Jacksonville Jaguars landed Davon Godchaux in a trade with the Saints, however, there were several other defensive tackles the team pursued in recent weeks, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
One of those players was Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Moro Ojomo.

Ojomo was a seventh-round pick by the Eagles in 2023 and put together an impressive 2025 season, which included generating 54 QB pressures. He has the versatility to line up in multiple gaps along the defensive front.
But for whatever the reason might be, that trade never materialized. So instead, the Jaguars pivoted to Godchaux, who will fill the run-stuffing, nose tackle role
that has since become vacant with DaVon Hamilton out for the season.
Also at defensive tackle the Jaguars have Arik Armstead, Albert Regis, Ruke Orhorhoro, and Matt Dickerson.
