The AFC South-leading Jacksonville Jaguars have made significant roster moves, trading for defensive tackle Jordan Davis and safety Jessie Bates III, according to a report from the Houston Chronicle on November 9, 2026.
Bates III, who previously played for the Atlanta Falcons, was photographed intercepting a pass from San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy during a game in Atlanta on October 25, 2026. The addition of both players signals an aggressive approach by Jacksonville as they look to strengthen their defense for a playoff push.
The trades come as the Jaguars sit atop the AFC South division, with the front office making win-now moves to capitalize on their current standing.
