Happy Friday, Big Cat Country! It's time for another edition of Tweets of the Week, where we round up the best Jacksonville Jaguars moments, buzz, and highlights from X/Twitter. From award wins to draft analysis, here's what had us talking this week.
First up, the Jaguars showed off their fun side by celebrating both May the 4th and Cinco de Mayo in style. The team's social media channels lit up with themed graphics, reminding fans that #DUUUVAL knows how to have a good time—whether channeling the Force or breaking out the maracas.
But the biggest celebration came from none other than Jaxson De Ville, who proved once again why he's the best mascot in the game. The beloved Jaguars mascot added another trophy to his mantle, and fans couldn't get enough of the victory lap. When you're that good, you deserve to show off the hardware.
Over on the football analysis front, NFL insiders Cameron Wolfe and Brian Baldinger (aka Baldy) dropped some serious insight into the Jaguars' draft strategy. They broke down the team's Year 2 plan for two-way star Travis Hunter, highlighting a major increase in defensive snaps. Plus, they explained why the Jags valued recent draft intel and anticipated a tight end run when selecting Nate Boerkircher. If you're a draft nerd, this was pure gold.
Baldy and Wolfe also gave their full AFC South draft review, offering a comprehensive look at how the division stacks up after the picks. Spoiler: the Jaguars got plenty of love for their approach.
The East-West Shrine Bowl gave a shoutout to the newest Jaguars joining the roster, including Albert Regis, Jalen Huskey, Wesley Williams, CJ Williams, Garrett DiGiorgio, Devon Marshall, and Bryan Thomas Jr. It's always exciting to see which under-the-radar talents could make an impact in Duval.
Veteran linebacker Kyle Van Noy, now with the Baltimore Ravens, made waves with his praise for Jaguars head coach Liam Coen during an appearance on the Up & Adams Show. "I think he's the best play caller that I've seen over the last two years… They were a nightmare to play against," Van Noy said. High praise from a guy who knows what it takes to win.
Josh Hines-Allen also made headlines as a guest on NFL Offseason Playbook. The star pass rusher sent a direct message to Jaguars fans and delivered an absolutely spot-on Duval impression that had everyone laughing. He also shared his thoughts on teammate Travon Walker, calling him "one of the most physically gifted defensive ends" he's ever seen. When your own teammate is hyping you up like that, you know you're special.
That's a wrap for this week's Tweets of the Week. Whether you're rocking your favorite Jaguars gear or just counting down to kickoff, stay locked in with Big Cat Country for all the latest. #DUUUVAL
