The @Jaguars have 37 rookie starts this season…most in the @NFL. The @RAIDERS are 2nd with 27 rookie starts.

Guys like Allen Hurns, Storm Johnson, Blake Bortles, Allen Robinson, Telvin Smith, Marquise Lee and Nic Jacobs are a major reason the team has such a high number. It was truly a successful off-season for the Jaguars.
