JACKSONVILLE – The Jaguars have been intentional about building depth, and it's becoming clear why.
The Jaguars for at least the next few practices will be without a few key players, including wide receiver Parker Washington, offensive lineman Wyatt Milum and running back LeQuint Allen Jr. They adjusted in practice Tuesday, adjustments for which they long have prepared.
"I love the way those guys embrace it," Offensive Coordinator Grant Udinski said Tuesday.
Udinski discussed the Jaguars' moving pieces on offense following a near-90-minute practice on Day 15 of Jaguars 2026 Training Camp at the Miller Electric Center, noting that the versatility of the Jaguars' roster has helped.
This is particularly true on the offensive line, where the Jaguars emphasize having multiple players prepared for multiple positions.
"Even at practice, you see the guys moving around to different spots," Udinski said. "Everybody's playing inside, they're playing outside, they're playing left, they're playing right.
"I'm fortunate that we have guys that can play those different spots, but you certainly keep it in mind to try to give guys maybe a little bit less challenging downs than had they gone out there and you're just running the plays blindly."
Offensive lineman Walker Little was among multiple Jaguars players returning to practice Tuesday. Multiple linemen have missed time with injuries during camp, including Little, Chuma Edoga, Patrick Mekari and Milum.
One player who has emerged in camp: Rookie guard Emmanuel Pregnon, who took repetitions with the first-team offense Tuesday. Pregnon, a third-round selection in the 2026 NFL Draft from the University of Oregon, stood out in Saturday's preseason opener against the New Orleans Saints –and he has gotten more reps this week.
"You see the physicality, you see the strength, you see the athleticism, you see the speed," Udinski said of Pregnon. "He's able to showcase that stuff now because he has a better understanding of the system, a better understanding of his rules.
"When there are shifts and adjustments and movement by the defense when we're making communication and calls out there, the processing of that is just that much quicker. It's a credit to his study and effort."
The Jaguars worked heavy situationally Tuesday, with a joint practice with the Carolina Panthers scheduled for Wednesday at the MEC. The teams will play at EverBank Stadium in Preseason Week 2 Friday, with Head Coach Liam Coen saying on Monday starters and front-line players may play in that game.
"We'll see how things shake out," Udinski said Tuesday. "I'll let Liam make those decisions, whether it's who's calling plays or who's playing in the game. That's up to him. So, I'm excited for the game either way. I know I'll be there and we'll figure it out whatever Liam says."

Here's a look at Tuesday's practice:
PLAY OF THE DAY
The best play Tuesday was among the best individual plays from any receiver in camp, and it came from undrafted rookie Michael Wortham. The speedy slot receiver made a one-handed reception near the sideline after a fastball from quarterback Nick Mullens into a tight window, with Wortham's grab drawing a big reaction from the sideline. With more reps because of injuries, Wortham made the most out of his opportunities Tuesday.
STANDING OUT
- Wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. made several big receptions down the field and looked like the most popular target of the day for starting quarterback Trevor Lawrence with Washington not on the field.
- Cornerback Jabbar Muhammad continued his strong camp, intercepting a pass from Lawrence and recording a pass-breakup.
- Running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. had several impressive inside runs on which he showed his ability to get the hidden yardage, a trait the Jaguars have deemed critical to the running game.
- Mullens returned to the field after missing Monday's practice, and he made a few impressive throws on the day, including the one to Wortham.
INJURY WATCH
Allen missed practice Tuesday and will be out for the remainder of camp with a soft tissue injury, with Mekari undergoing back surgery recently and reports saying he is expected to miss "some time." Washington and Milum are considered "day to day" with undisclosed injuries, with both players expected to return next week. Little practiced for a second consecutive day Tuesday after being out of practice. Also appearing to be out of practice Tuesday: Edoga, offensive lineman Geron Christian, defensive end Zach Durfee, linebacker Jack Kiser (knee) and defensive tackle Arik Armstead. Linebacker Jalen McLeod worked in individual periods after missing Monday. Offensive tackle Cole Van Lanen (knee) remained on the Physically Unable to Perform list to start camp.
