Cyprien has started every game he's been healthy the past three seasons, but is a liability against the pass and had a team-high 21 missed tackles last year.

The Jaguars could start sophomore James Sample and convert Cyprien into a sub-package linebacker to limit his coverage exposures.

The Florida Times-Union expects Sample to open 2016 opposite FS Tashaun Gipson. Mar 26 - 8:31 PM

"We took a look at him and divided it – when he was close to the line of scrimmage and when he was back – and where did he play better and was more consistent," coach Gus Bradley said. "We felt being in the box allowed him to utilize his skill set."

Hence Gus is thinking of moving Cyprien to LB.
