Outside of the game set to be played tonight between the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills, the first six weeks of the 2024 NFL regular season are officially in the books, with things starting to take shape in terms of what teams are the real deal and which teams need to do some tweaking to get back on track.

One team that is struggling at the moment in the AFC is the Jacksonville Jaguars, with Trevor Lawrence and company finding it difficult to figure out how to put some wins together, as they are currently sitting at 1-5 on the season after a loss to the new-look Chicago Bears.

Rookie quarterback Caleb Williams carved up the Jaguars’ defense, throwing four touchdowns in a route in London, England, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with Lawrence and the offense only managing to put up 16 points in the team’s fifth loss of the season.

On Monday, the Jaguars didn’t waste any time in deciding to make a move, which might indicate the team is coming to terms with the fact that this season might be a lost cause, as they traded veteran defensive lineman Roy Robertson-Harris to the Seattle Seahawks, according to Tom Pelissero and Mike Garafolo of NFL Network.

As for the Seahawks, Seattle has played better than expected this season but is still floating around .500, with a record of 3-3 after suffering three straight losses.

The team’s most recent loss came against the division-rival San Francisco 49ers, which may have prompted the Seahawks brass to make a move to upgrade the defensive line, which they did with the addition of Robertson-Harris.
