Jaguars bolster secondary with Shaquill Griffin signing
Fantasy slant: Jacksonville's secondary needed improvement in a huge way. In 2020, the Jaguars allowed 10 100-yard games to wide receivers, while ranking 31st in PFF's coverage grade. Griffin will join second-year corner C.J. Henderson to form a solid pairing. Last season, Griffin allowed 45 catches on 73 targets for 552 yards and six touchdowns, while intercepting three passes. However, from Week 8 on, Griffin allowed just one touchdown and a 66.4 passer rating in his coverage. This signing makes a ton of sense for Jacksonville, while it makes an already weak Seattle defense even worse. — Adam Pfeifer
