Mandatory minicamp from April 21-23 follows for the Jaguars.
Organized team activities are May 19, 21-22, 27, 29-30 and June 2-5. A mandatory minicamp will be held June 10-12. The team can also hold a rookie minicamp either the first or second week after the NFL draft. The team hasn’t announced if any of the offseason camps will be open to the public.
The NFL has stringent offseason program guidelines, and it is broken into three phases. The first two weeks of Phase 1 is limited to meetings, strength and conditioning and physical rehab. Phase 2 is a three-week period where work on the field is limited to individual or group instruction drills. Offensive players can line up against offensive players and defensive players can match up against defensive players. No live contact or offense against defense drills are allowed.
Phase 3 is the final four weeks of the program, and teams are limited to 10 days of OTAs. No contact is permitted but 7-on-7, 9-on-7 and 11-on-11 drills are allowed.
The NFL is serious about teams adhering to the policy. In 2021, the league hammered the Jaguars with fines after head coach Urban Meyer violated non-contact rules during OTAs. Jacksonville was fined $200,000 and Meyer was fined $100,000 for the violation.
