Jaguars Open Mandatory Minicamp Practice To The Public
May 27th, 2026
Attention, Team Glazer!
So the Bucs had three training camp practices open to the Average Joes last season, aka fans without season passes or a tie to a special interest group.
Bravo! That was up from two practices in 2024 and only one in 2023.
However, Joe remembers back in, say, 2015, when the Buccaneers had 11 training camp dates open to all fans. The norm around the league (and Joe has done the research) is for teams to make a majority of their training camp dates open to fans.
Joe sure hopes the Bucs get back to that because, well, for all the same darn reasons Bucs officials used to celebrate opening the vast majority of dates to the public.
A different twist on fan-friendly was unveiled yesterday by the Jaguars. Jacksonville will open Day 1 of the team’s mandatory minicamp (June 10) to the public. Tickets are free.
What a wonderful decision.

The Glazers should adopt you and change your name “Joe Glazer” cause you are always glazin’ Liam Coen and the Jags

I once (’03 ?) drove to Orlando to watch a practice at Disney. It was great, hot but great. It was well organized with the cheerleaders and all. So it must have cost a fair amount. Are the owners that worried about foreign intelligence agents in the stands ? Perhaps the owners are just being cheap !

Clearly the Jags actually care about the fan base.
Not only are they making practice free and open to the public, they hired a real HC to change the direction of their franchise.
Meanwhile the Glazer kids are happy to miss the playoffs or go bust in round one at home in prime time. They love the Bowles culture of failure.
And almost no open practices to the public and definitely not free.
The Jags get it. The Glazers are idiots.

I remember when the Glazers first bought the team and were shaking hands with anyone who stuck their hand out at Pipin Rood stadium.
Whatever the extra cost involved with fan friendly open practices are worth more than can be calculated by the bean counters.
It absolutely WONDERFUL for getting young kids attached to a favorite player.
Clearly NOT everyone can afford the Sunday RayJay experience $$$$$
Oh well clearly the Glazers are not listening to
Hence the current HC

Jags take a home game away from their fans every year and send them overseas. Not sure if that is caring about your fanbase.
IMO Season Tickets holders should get some perks. Not all season Ticket holders are wealthy. Just choose to spend dollars on Tickets.

I went to the Bucs/Jags joint practice a rear of two ago as I have friends in the area. I was impressed how the Jags set up the practice, and how many open practices, they had. Too bad the Glazers are too cheap to compete for the fans. With the Jags temporary move to Orlando, they might win over the folks there.
