What updates are there on the Jaguars' stadium construction?
It is Thursday, February 26th. This is Jack Barr's Happy Hour. And now, fresh from the combine, you know, like combining a nice bourbon with a lovely cigar, perhaps, J.P. Shatrick.
Joe knows me all too well. Welcome in. It is Jaguars happy hour, and we are back again. It is combine week. We are here in Jacksonville. We'll get to that coming up. Busy show. Mark Lamping had some updates this week. Jaguars president on the construction for the stadium of the future. And the two London game announcement this year in 2026. We'll get to all that coming up.
What insights were shared from the NFL Combine?
A combine review, sort of. Some of the Jaguars front office executives were there. Others were not. We'll get into some reasons why. We're going to keep it real and do that tonight. We're keeping it real a little bit later. And an AFC South check-in the first of three straight weeks. We'll visit with an opposing announcer. This week, the Houston Texans, Mark Vandermeer. We'll get into their needs this offseason. I caught up with him on Radio Row in Indianapolis this week as well. We're on 1010XLAM, Jaguars.com, Jaguars YouTube, J.P. Shadrick with you. And at long last... Jeff Loggaman returns to the Miller Electric Center and the Hyundai Studios.
How are the Jaguars preparing for the upcoming free agency?
It's been way too long, Loggs. How are you?
I'm doing good. And your beard has gotten, like, thick and bushy since the last time I've seen you. I'm kind of digging it. One of these days, I'm going to grow up and be like you, Loggs. You look like, and some of the old wrestling fans, Tony Khan would know this, Jim Hacksaw Dugan beard going on right now. I need a two-by-four in here. The American flag.
There you go. That's right. Yeah, that would be interesting. So, yeah, we've got a lot to get to here on a weird week. I mean, usually, and we'll get to this in keeping it real, the Jaguars' presence, or lack thereof, at the NFL Scouting Combine this week has kind of made some headlines. We'll get to some reasons why or why you should not be concerned about that.
What is the perspective on the Jaguars' leadership at the Combine?
Or you could say was not in the headlines because they're not there. Or that. Or that was some of the headlines that they weren't there, too. Correct. We'll get to that and see if it's a big deal. Also, we've got to hear from Mark Lamping, Jaguars president. He spoke earlier this week with the media yesterday about some of the updates. But let's get us some football and some reports today around the Jaguars, including out of Pittsburgh today. Andrew Filippone of 93.7 The Fan in Pittsburgh reported today, tweeted today. That the Steelers have been in talks with the Jaguars about wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. And that the two teams discussed a deal at the deadline last year. Of course, it did not go through.
Here we go. It's that time of year. Free agency starts March 11th, the new league year.
What is the current status of pending free agents for the Jaguars?
I mean, the Titans made a trade today. Tavondre Sweat's gone. You're going to start hearing these kind of things ramp up in the next two weeks.
Yeah, Tavon Reset went to the Jets, right? That's right, yeah. Yeah, look, I think there's a lot of things that can fly around this time of year, you know, because there's not a whole lot going on, but then there is a whole lot going on kind of behind the scenes. So would I be surprised if there was a conversation about Brian Thomas Jr.? No. I mean, because, look, if somebody's going to call me up and I'm James Gladstone, okay, and say, hey, look, we really have an interest in player X. What do you think? I'm like, well, look, everybody's got a price tag. I mean, there's very few in the NFL that don't have a price tag. You've got to be willing to listen to maybe improve your franchise in a way that was unexpected.
You know, so is it likely that this happened? I don't know.
What is the outlook for the Houston Texans this offseason?
Who knows? But if it did happen, it would not surprise me one bit.
And let's be honest. I mean, the Pittsburgh Steelers, when it comes to receivers last year. They had some issues too, right? They lacked in that department. And even with Brian Thomas not having the great statistical season that we saw in his rookie season, he would still be right up there in what the Steelers are doing this year.
