Western Michigan DE Marshawn Kneeland set to visit Jaguars

Western Michigan pass rusher Marshawn Kneeland is set to meet with the Jacksonville Jaguars on a Top 30 visit, according to Ryan Fowler of The Draft Network.

Per Fowler, Kneeland has already visited with the Kansas City Chiefs and has visits scheduled with the Jaguars, New Orleans Saints, Buffalo Bills, San Francisco 49ers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Carolina Panthers.

While every NFL team had access to just about every prospect at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine, each club is allowed to bring in 30 players for a “Top 30” visit.

Kneeland has no shortage of interest after racking up 28 tackles for loss during his collegiate career at Western Michigan. At the combine, he turned heads with a 119-inch broad jump, 35.5-inch vertical jump, and 4.75 40-yard dash at 6’3, 267 pounds.

Marshawn Kneeland is a DT prospect in the 2024 draft class. He scored an unofficial 9.87 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 22 out of 1620 DT from 1987 to 2024.

The Jaguars are in need of more pass rushing talent with both Dawuane Smoot and K’Lavon Chaisson set to become free agents. While the duo of Josh Allen and Travon Walker combined for 27.5 sacks, the rest of the team combined couldn’t hit half that total.

Last week, Daniel Jeremiah of NFL Network ranked Kneeland as the No. 48 prospect in the 2024 NFL draft.
