Your First Look at Camp 2026: What You Need to Know
Camp Dates, Location & Free Ticket Game Duval’s sweating - and it’s not just the July heat. The Jaguars opened training camp on July 25 at the Miller Electric Center in Jacksonville, and it runs through August 15. Every practice is free, but you need a reservation through the Jaguars mobile app. Today, July 28, is a standard practice day: no scrimmage, no Fan Appreciation Day (that was yesterday, July 27). Don’t mistake routine for boring. This is where the real work starts.
Parking, Merch & Wallet-Friendly Tips Keep your wallet happy. Parking costs a flat $10 per vehicle, cashless only - tap your card or phone and roll in. Hit the Pro Shop for official 2026 camp gear: t-shirts and hats run $32.99 - $44.99. No confirmed heat-safety policy changes this year, so bring your own backup plan. Water, sunscreen, and a portable fan are essential. The team hasn’t announced new cooling stations, but free hydration spots dot the fields.

The Roster Is Set - Who to Watch on July 28
Draft Class Arrives: 10 New Faces to Track The 2026 draft class - all 10 picks announced April 23 - 25 - shows up in full force. These rookies fight for every rep. Today’s standard practice means one-on-one drills and position battles take center stage. Watch the early-round names closely. They’re the ones likely to make an immediate dent in the depth chart.
Free-Agent Adds: J.C. Jackson and Teven Jenkins Make Their Mark Two veteran additions signed on March 14 already turn heads. CB J.C. Jackson (1-year, $3.2M deal) jumps into an immediate competition for the CB2 spot. G Teven Jenkins (2-year, $14.5M) brings much-needed grit to the offensive line. As of this morning, no injury or holdout reports surfaced - both are day-one participants, full-go. The battle between Jackson and young corners like Tyson Campbell? That’s the juice you want to see live.

Fan Experience: Make the Most of Day 4 (July 28)
No Special Event? No Problem - Here’s How to Spot Stars No scrimmage doesn’t mean low energy. Standard practices let coaches focus on fundamentals and matchups. Arrive early and stake out a spot near the field tunnels - that’s where players often stop for autographs after drills. Follow the team’s social accounts this morning for last-minute player interviews or schedule tweaks. You might catch Trevor Lawrence chatting with fans or a rookie signing hats.
Weather, Schedules & Staying Cool Jacksonville in late July: heat and humidity become the real opponents. Practice times likely run early morning or late afternoon (check the app the day before). Bring a clear bag (security rules), a refillable water bottle, and that portable fan. Free hydration stations sit on site, but no heat-safety policy changes have been announced - so pace yourself. This is Duval. We grind through the sweat.
