JACKSONVILLE – Jaguars 2025 Training Camp continued Monday.
It was the 13th day of the first training camp under Head Coach Liam Coen, featuring about a 90-minute practice in helmets and shorts at the Miller Electric Center. Each day throughout camp, members of Jaguars Media – senior writer John Oehser, senior reporter/editor J.P. Shadrick and team reporter Kainani Stevens – will share an observation.
Here are Monday's "campservations:"

There was some unpacking and looking forward going on around Jaguars training camp on Day 13, with the Jaguars practicing comparatively light and short two days after a 31-25 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the ’25 preseason opener at EverBank Stadium. Head Coach Liam Coen's tone Monday not unexpectedly remained true to his postgame tone – that the penalties that defined the loss, and that helped stall the first-team offense's lone drive, must be eliminated. Coen on Monday, too, expressed disappointment with alignment and assignment during the first-team defense's lone possession – a too-easy touchdown drive that gave the Steelers a 7-3 lead. Monday's practice therefore featured a 40-play, extended alignment/assignment period.
"They definitely caught us with some tempo," defensive end Travon Walker said of Saturday's first drive. "That came into play at practice today. I feel like we did a great job at practice today and watched the film earlier. Now we just have to continuously get on the ball, be ready and be set – and that way we won't get caught off the ball like that."
We're getting a feel for Coen as his first Jaguars training camp continues, and the thought here is we're learning that he's going to remain very transparent with the public/media when he feels there are issues – and that he's not going to let those issues go unaddressed.
