Jaguars, Bucs to hold joint practices ahead of preseason game

The Jacksonville Jaguars and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will hold joint practices ahead of their Aug. 20 preseason game.

Jacksonville will host Tampa Bay from Aug. 17-18 at EverBank Field, before the game.

"The joint practices will be a great experience for our team and a unique way to challenge our players. We expect these practices, like all of our camp practices, to be extremely competitive, and I feel strongly that these two days will be very beneficial for both teams," Jaguars head coach Gus Bradley said in a statement obtained by Ryan O'Halloran of the Florida Times-Union.

They'll be the first joint practices held under Bradley's regime.
