Jacksonville Jaguars defensive tackle Derek Landri was poised for a breakout performance. With increased reps in each of his past five games, Derek’s readiness exploded with big plays — a sack, an interception and a fumble recovery in a Wild Card Playoff win over the Steelers. As the Jags prepared for the next round against the unbeaten New England Patriots, Derek took some time post-practice to talk about his career and the Jags’ quest for SBXLII.
