Jacksonville Jaguars: 3 Players that must show up big vs. Chiefs in Week 1
By Larry Brake
3. Cam Robinson
Left tackle is a very important position on the offensive line. Nick Foles will be very dependent upon Cam Robinson to protect his blindside. Robinson missed most of 2018 due to injury.

He played very briefly in the third preseason game. Expect Kansas City to pressure Foles from any possible direction. Let’s hope that Robinson gets up to game speed very quickly.
Robinson will probably face Frank Clark the majority of the game. Clark recorded 13 sacks for Seattle in 2018. Kansas City acquired him via trade and signed him to a contract extension, according to Spotrac.com.
The running attack depends upon a healthy Robinson. Jacksonville will use Leonard Fournette to set up the passing game. The Jaguars were very effective in 2017 with their play action passing.
Robinson generally plays with a chip on his shoulder. His fiery attitude was absent from the Jaguars last season. If he can show that he is healthy and ready to play, Jacksonville has a better chance to win.
Robinson must show up big this Sunday. Winning the battle in the trenches is very important. Foles and his ability to make plays is key to moving the chains.
