Why does Doug Pederson play his starters in the preseason?
While the first week of the preseason invites dozens of backups around the league to enter games as starters -- especially at the quarterback position -- the Jacksonville Jaguars will be marching to a different tune.
“I don't know. That's just how I've treated it. I know that's how coaches treated it. I think it's important that these guys play, especially early," Pederson said. With the defending champions lining up across from the Jaguars' starting offense and defense on Saturday, Pederson and the Jaguars should get a better feel for where the team is at and where it needs to be.
