Jaguars' Tanner Koziol: Won't play Sunday
Koziol (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.
Koziol is once again a healthy scratch. The tight end is the odd man out in a position room that consists of Brenton Strange, Nate Boerkircher and Quintin Morris.

Jaguars' Tanner Koziol: Healthy scratch vs. Cleveland
Koziol (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.
Koziol, the Jaguars' fifth-round pick of the 2026 NFL Draft, will be a healthy inactive for Week 1, so his next chance to make his regular-season debut is Week 2 against the Broncos on Sunday, Sept. 20. Brenton Strange, Quintin Morris and rookie second-rounder Nate Boerkircher will be Jacksonville's active tight ends against Cleveland.

Jaguars' Tanner Koziol: No catches in Friday's preseason loss
Koziol played 18 snaps (13 on offense, five on special teams) but didn't show up in the box score otherwise during the Jaguars' 34-17 preseason loss to the Panthers on Friday.
Koziol and Hunter Long were listed as the Jaguars' starting tight ends for Friday's exhibition contest while both Brenton Strange and Nate Boerkircher observed the game from the sidelines. Koziol, a fifth-round selection of the Jaguars in the 2026 NFL Draft, is competing against Long and Quintin Morris for the TE3 role behind Strange and Boerkircher. Koziol's last in-game opportunity to win that job will come this Friday in the Jaguars' preseason finale against the Buccaneers.

Jaguars' Tanner Koziol: Catchless in preseason debut
Koziol didn't catch either of his two targets Saturday in a 24-20 preseason win against the Saints.
Neither of Koziol's targets were particularly well thrown, so his lack of catches shouldn't be a major concern. The rookie fifth-round pick will look to make a louder impact, however, in Jacksonville's remaining preseason contests. Brenton Strange is slated to be the Jaguars' top tight end during the upcoming season, with Koziol and Nate Boerkircher jockeying for the No. 2 and No. 3 slots.

Jaguars' Tanner Koziol: Building early momentum
Koziol has been a standout during the early portion of the Jaguars' offseason program, John Shipley of SI.com reports.
Koziol, a rookie fifth-round pick, has generated more buzz during spring practices than second-rounder Nate Boerkircher. Tight ends coach Richard Angulo described Koziol as being "a little bit more polished as a pass catcher" and mentioned the rookie's "ball skills and his size and range," at 6-foot-6, 247 pounds. Brenton Strange remains entrenched as Jacksonville's No. 1 tight end, and Boerkircher's blocking ability may give him an edge for the No. 2 role, but Koziol is making an early case for opportunities in Liam Coen's offense, which -- per Garry Smits of the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union -- is expected to feature more multi-TE looks in 2026.

Jaguars' Tanner Koziol: Picked by Jacksonville
The Jaguars selected Koziol in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 164th overall.
Koziol fell almost to the sixth round over concerns that he just doesn't have what it takes to be a blocker at the NFL level. At 6-foot-7, 247 pounds Koziol is big in general, but his height (93rd percentile, according to Mockdraftable) rapidly outpaces his weight (27th percentile). There's also the suspicion that Koziol just doesn't have tight-end temperament -- he truly might be a gigantic wide receiver. Finally, the good news: as a pass catcher Koziol clearly has NFL ability. Koziol drew targets at a rapid frequency at both Ball State and Houston, proving beyond any doubt that he will draw targets at a standout per-snap basis. The concern is that Koziol's lack of blocking ability and/or intent could result in a very low snap count, even if he makes the team. Long shot as he might be, Koziol is still a preferable fantasy target to Jaguars second-round pick Nate Boerkircher.
