During James Gladstone's post-free agency press conference with the media, the Jacksonville Jaguars' GM was asked about free agent wide receiver Cooper Kupp. Naturally, there is a connection between the two, given that Gladstone had spent his professional career at the NFL level with the LA Rams before coming to Jacksonville.

The additions, Gladstone said Thursday set the standard for what the team is trying to accomplish. Bringing in three players at that position group, the most among any group in Jaguars free agency, can help the franchise move forward with their plans for the NFL Draft without having a clear hole on the front.

The Jacksonville Jaguars introduced their free agent class on Thursday from the Miller Electric Center. But could there be another late addition with ties to general manager James Gladstone and head coach Liam Coen?

Fowler is coming off his most productive season since 2024, totaling 50 pressures and 11 sacks, according to PFF. Alongside of Travon Walker and Josh Hines-Allen, Fowler could carve out a role on passing heavy downs, where he can pin his ears back and get the quarterback.
