Wouldn't surprise me if it's a good long time before we see 63 on a Jaguars jersey again. I don't anticipate 32 being out of service for long given the epilogue MJD provided for his Jaguars career, and barring some kind of monstrous late-career revival, I'd be genuinely stunned if 89 was taken out of service for any length of time upon Lewis' departure. I think there's a Rashean Mathis line in play. Mathis is a local guy, grew up in Jacksonville, played college ball just down the road, and spent ten years with the Jags as the best corner in team history (yeah, better than Beasley). He and the team handled his departure with class, and his number was "out of service" for about a month until Gratz was added. In my mind, that creates what I'd lovingly refer to as the "Mathis Line". Meester's longevity and the fact that, in his prime and a little past it, he was a really good center, might push him over my arbitrary, completely made-up Mathis Line. MJD had a shorter career with Jacksonville, and it was often full of dramatic fireworks between player and team. If MJD's number is shut down for several years while 27 is running around out there...that'd just be weird.
