Jaguars expect Dante Fowler to take step forward this year
Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Dante Fowler expects to take a step forward this season.
"I think it will happen," Fowler said. "It was a big learning experience for me last year. I feel like I’m in the best shape of my life." Fowler is currently 248 pounds, but expects to play at 250-255. He should be closer to his pre-injury form two years removed from knee surgery. Fowler is a good bet to improve on his four sacks from 2016.
The Jaguars were 12th and sixth in the NFL in 2016 in schedule-adjusted Defensive Rushing and Passing Net Expected Points allowed per play, respectively.
