For 'Skins, Jaguars roster spots up for grabs

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jacksonville and Washington would like to see a lot more from their first-team offenses in the preseason finale.

But because starters won't play very long, it's probably not going to happen. So the Jaguars (2-1) and Redskins (2-1) will settle for finalizing a few roster spots when they meet Thursday night.

"Guys who still have jobs to secure are going to get a lot of time, a lot of opportunity to make a last impression," Jacksonville coach Jack Del Rio said.

Final roster cuts are Saturday, and the Jaguars have several position battles coming down to the wire.

Charles Sharon and John Broussard are vying for the sixth and final receiver spot. Dee Webb and Bruce Thornton are competing for the fifth cornerback job.

And the third-string running back position is down to LaBrandon Toefield and Alvin Pearman.
