Following a 3–14 season marked with on-and off-the-field issues by head coach Urban Meyer who ultimately got fired, the Jaguars were one of the most active teams in free agency during the offseason and spent a record $175.3 million in guaranteed money, with the notable additions of Christian Kirk, Zay Jones, Brandon Scherff, Evan Engram, Foyesade Oluokun, Darious Williams and Folorunso Fatukasi. They earned the first overall pick for the second straight year in the 2022 NFL draft, which they used to select defensive end Travon Walker from Georgia.

Despite a 3–7 start, the Jaguars won six of their final seven games, tripling their win total from 2021, including finishing the season on a five-game winning streak to win their fourth division title and second AFC South title after a Week 18 win over the Tennessee Titans, securing their first playoff berth since 2017. They also became the second team in NFL history after the 2008 San Diego Chargers to start 4–8 and make the playoffs.

In the Wild Card round, the Jaguars rallied from a 27–0 deficit to defeat the Los Angeles Chargers 31–30. It was the largest comeback in franchise history and the third largest in NFL postseason history. However, their season would end the following week with a 27–20 loss to the eventual Super Bowl LVII champion Kansas City Chiefs in the Divisional round.

Draft trades

  1. ^ a b c d The Jaguars traded second-, fourth- and sixth-round selections (33rd, 106th, and 180th overall) to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in exchange for a first-round selection (27th overall).[1]
  2. ^ a b The Jaguars traded CB C. J. Henderson and a fifth-round selection (144th overall) to the Carolina Panthers in exchange for TE Dan Arnold and a third-round selection (70th overall).[2]
  3. ^ a b c The Jaguars traded two sixth-round selections (188th and 198th overall) to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a fifth-round selection (154th overall).[3]
  4. ^ a b The Jaguars traded fifth- and seventh-round selections (157th and 235th overall) to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in exchange for a 2023 fourth-round selection.[4]
  5. ^ The Jaguars traded DE Yannick Ngakoue to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for a conditional fifth-round selection (157th overall) and a 2021 second-round selection. The fifth-round pick would have become a fourth-round pick if Ngakoue was selected on the first ballot to the 2021 Pro Bowl (not as an alternate).[5] This did not happen, so the pick remained in the fifth round. Fans of several other teams unsuccessfully attempted to vote Ngakoue into the Pro Bowl and cause the Vikings to give up the higher pick.[6]
  6. ^ The Jaguars traded CB Sidney Jones to the Seattle Seahawks in exchange for a sixth-round selection (188th overall).[7]
  7. ^ The Jaguars traded QB Gardner Minshew to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a conditional sixth-round selection (197th overall).[8]
  8. ^ The Jaguars traded LB Joe Schobert to the Pittsburgh Steelers in exchange for a sixth-round selection 198th overall).[9]
  9. ^ The Jaguars traded TE Josh Oliver to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for a conditional seventh-round selection (235th overall). The trade was conditional on Oliver making Baltimore's roster in 2021.[10]
