FEATURED ALL-25 PLAYER OF THE GAME
NO. 11 – LB PAUL POSLUSZNY
Former Jaguars LB Paul Posluszny was selected
as No. 11 on the Jaguars All-25 presented by
Sharpie, a collection of the top 25 non-active
players in franchise history, as voted on by
members of the local media.
“I want to say thank you from the bottom of my
heart for including me in the Jaguars All-25,”
said Posluszny. “I think of all the great Jaguars
that have played for the organization and to be
included in that group is something very special.
I loved every minute of my time with the Jaguars.
I miss it and I think about it all the time because
you were surrounded by great people, great
teammates and coaches and most importantly,
outstanding fans – the best fans in the NFL. Thank
you for making it such a special experience,
something that I will remember forever.”
Posluszny appeared in 145 career regular season
games for the Jaguars and the Buffalo Bills,
totaling 1,381 career tackles (984 solo), 41 passes
defensed, 16.0 sacks, 15 INTs, eight forced fumbles
and three fumble recoveries. During his career
tenure from 2007-18, Posluszny was one of two
players to record at least 15.0 sacks and 15 INTs,
and his 1,381 tackles were the most in the NFL
over that span.
Posluszny, who served as a team captain for fi ve
seasons in Jacksonville, joined the Jaguars as
an unrestricted free agent on July 29, 2011 and
appeared in 100 games for Jacksonville, posting
984 tackles, the second-most in franchise history.
Posluszny totaled 11 INTs during his tenure with
the Jaguars, a team record for a LB.
“Give me 53 of Poz, and I’ll win you a
championship,” said Cole Pepper, a sports reporter
with WJXT and a member of the All-25 voting
panel. “Nobody ever comported themselves better
as a Jaguar, as a pro, prepared himself better, led
better by example than Paul Posluszny.”
Posluszny currently attends graduate school and
lives in Jacksonville, Fla. with his wife, Elizabeth,
and their two daughters.
