Former Kentucky star Josh Hines-Allen is set to enter year seven in the NFL with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2025. The 28-year-old signed a five-year extension with the AFC South franchise last offseason worth $150 million. Jacksonville did that for a reason.

The former No. 7 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft is one of the best players in football. That was confirmed this week when Hines-Allen was named the No. 63 overall player in the Top 100 countdown.

“Josh is one of those guys that makes me happy that I don’t play on the edge,” Former Jaguars starting center Mitch Morse said. “Not only is he a physical presence, he’s got the physical attributes, but he also is diligent in his craft.”

In 2024, Josh Hines-Allen recorded 45 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, eight sacks, and 19 QB hits. This was a year after Hines-Allen recorded a career-high 17.5 sacks. The veteran has become one of the best pass rushers in the NFL and will be a key building-block as new head coach Liam Coen and general manager James Gladstone take over in Duval County.

Josh Hines-Allen launches campaign against cancer as son, Wesley, battles leukemia

You may recall Josh Hines-Allen introducing his young son, Wesley, to football fans watching the 2019 NFL Draft. Wesley was one of the stars of the entire night when his dad was drafted and he joined his father on stage with Roger Goodell.

Six years later, Hines-Allen shined another light on Wesley. Unfortunately, this time, it is to announce Wesley’s leukemia diagnosis. Josh and his wife, Kaitlyn, shared a video to tell their son’s story and to thank his support circle for being there through difficult times. The Hines-Allens learned of Wesley’s diagnosis seven months ago.

Wesley is “back to being a big brother” today to his younger siblings.

The dreaded six-letter word that no parent ever wants to hear: Cancer.

Seven months ago, our world stopped when our son, Wesley, was diagnosed with leukemia.

As parents, we've held each other through tears we didn't know we had, watching our little boy fight the biggest battle… pic.twitter.com/KN33gTTaRT

The Hines-Allen family will launch a season-long campaign through their “Four One For All” charity, called “Four One For Hope,” to raise money and awareness for four organizations committed to fighting cancer: Nemours Children’s Health, the American Cancer Society, the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Jacksonville, and the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation.
