The Jacksonville Jaguars have reached the conclusion of their second week of training camp. The team has completed eight practices, including the stadium scrimmage on Friday night.
Now, they'll turn their attention to the first preseason game on Saturday, Aug. 9 at EverBank Stadium against the Pittsburgh Steelers .

But first they'll conduct another week of practices in preparation, taking the field Aug. 3 and Aug. 5-7.

Last week saw several players have standout performances. The group was headlined by quarterback Trevor Lawrence who, unofficially, only has two interceptions in 125 passing attempts.
Lawrence has continued to impress, but at this point it'd be more shocking if he wasn't operating at a high level in Liam Coen's system.
This week's standouts focuses on players who have taken a noticeable step from their first to second week performance. Most names will be familiar, but one is a sleeper to make the end of Jacksonville's roster.

Jaguars DB Jarrian Jones makes highlight plays on back to back days

There isn't a player who had a better Week 2 of training camp than Jarrian Jones . It's not just the highlight plays he made on consecutive days, but his insertion to Jacksonville's top secondary group yielded good early returns.
With cornerback Montaric Brown set to miss the remainder of camp, Jones is a player who'll have a lot of eyes on him going forward. And he seems to be more than capable of carrying his share of the load.
Jaguars WR Eli Pancol shows off route running ability

The Jaguars have their top receivers set. Brian Thomas Jr. , Dyami Brown , Travis Hunter and Parker Washington make up the four players who'll have a defined role in Liam Coen's offense.

But there's at least one, potentially two, spots available behind those players. Eli Pancol is doing his best to be in the mix. Pancol is an undrafted free agent, but has shown the ability to make plays when his number is called.
He has multiple touchdown catches through the first two weeks of camp. He'll be someone to watch as camp continues.
Jaguars WR/CB Travis Hunter has strong practices on both sides of the ball

Travis Hunter made this list last week because of his schedule. He's on it this week because of his on-field participation.
Hunter has had five pass break-ups on defense and 10 receptions with one touchdown on offense through camp. He's flashed his skill on both sides of the ball as the Jaguars continue their plan of allowing him to play on offense and defense.

Dyami Brown flashes ability to make impact plays at each level

After having an impressive showing this offseason, Dyami Brown had a slow start to training camp. But that changed in the second week where he displayed the skill to have an impact in multiple facets of the offense.
Brown took a handoff from Lawrence and picked up a first down in one practice. He found the soft spot in the zone and picked up chunk yards in another. And he got behind the defense to score a would-be touchdown in another.
His versatility is a welcomed addition to Jacksonville's offense.
Travon Walker impresses with pass rush ability

Travon Walker has stood out among defenders. It's sometimes hard to tell because pass rushers pull up before they get to the quarterback, but Walker has forced his way into the backfield multiple times since camp began.

Batted passes, would-be sacks and wrecking havoc in the rushing attack has been his calling card. Walker has continually gotten better since joining the league and this season shouldn't be any different.
