Jaguars quarterback Chad Henne has been sacked 13 times this season, by far the most of any quarterback in the NFL. And Jacksonville has rushed for just 89 yards this season, by far the fewest of any team in the league.
Those stats indicate that the offensive line isn’t getting the job done. One member of the Jaguars’ offensive line has paid for that with his job.
Cam Bradfield, who started the first two games at right tackle, has been released, according to the Florida Times-Union.
Bradfield was expected to be a backup this season, but he was forced into the starting lineup when Austin Pasztor suffered a broken hand. It’s not clear whether Pasztor will be able to play in Week Three, but if he can’t the Jags will go with Sam Young, who replaced Bradfield after he was benched in the fourth quarter on Sunday.
If Bradfield was the problem, the Jaguars’ offensive line should improve in Week Three. It could hardly get any worse.
