JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Here's a preview of what to expect on Friday regarding the Jacksonville Jaguars. After several days of missing him in the open locker room period, I was finally able to catch up with cornerback Aaron Colvin on Thursday. The Jaguars are just as eager to see what he can do as he is to finally get on the field as he is to make his debut on Sunday at Indianapolis. Colvin will play mainly as a nickelback. It has been a long road for the rookie from Oklahoma, who tore his ACL during the Senior Bowl. The Jaguars are going to try out a new lineup at linebacker this weekend, one that includes Geno Smith playing some at Otto (a position where the linebacker is up on the line of scrimmage and either rushes the passer or goes back in coverage). Rookie Telvin Smith may get some snaps there, too. Stopping the run is always the defense's first priority. It should be a little easier this week because the Colts won't have Ahmad Bradshaw (broken leg) and Trent Richardson hasn't exactly flourished. My prediction for Sunday's game will post at 1 p.m. ET
