The Jacksonville Jaguars Defense is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for the DST position. Target them as a free agent add off waivers for Week 17 of the 2023 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 41% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: The Jaguars sneak into RotoBaller's DST Tier 3 mostly based on their matchup with the 32nd-ranked Panthers at home. Jacksonville somehow still sits atop the division no one wants to win (AFC South) and is another team that controls its own destiny to secure a division title and at least one home playoff game.

The Panthers’ implied total of 15.8 points is the third-lowest on the week after the Jets and Patriots. We wish there was more incentive to rank the Jaguars’ DST higher in this juicy matchup, but they have averaged only 3.8 fantasy PPG over the last five games. However, each of those five games was a negative DST matchup. In the eight games before their bye, with a higher proportion of positive DST matchups, the Jaguars averaged 9.1 fantasy PPG. Jacksonville is another “boom or bust” option for Week 17.
