In a sports landscape that has included some biological males not only competing against, but sharing locker room space with biological females, leagues littering their fields or courts with stenciled woke signage, and teams celebrating Pride nights, wearing Pride warmup jerseys and even Pride-themed uniforms, we present the Jacksonville Jaguars this week.
The Jaguars, in case you are unfamiliar, are an NFL team in one of the league’s smaller markets. They’re also the defending AFC South champions.
And they’re also the organization that put this on X this week:
“God is good … All the time!
And then added a praying hands emoji.
That’s quite a banger to start training camp.

Not surprisingly, people noticed.
The post was seen 1.9 million times as of Thursday evening after being posted at 10:18 a.m. on Wednesday.
The Jaguars boast around 857,000 followers on X, which is modest by NFL team standards. Their estimated average posts are viewed by anywhere from 20,000 to maybe 35,000 people.

But this simple message of faith went absolutely viral for the team.
It also became a curiosity because it’s obviously atypical.
It’s atypical because, first of all, it was posted by one of the several players who were given access to the team’s account as a social media admin gimmick. And it worked.
“Rare Jags W, coming from a Texans fan,” one fan replied.
A Colts fan agreed – the Jaguars, Colts and Texans are in the same division.
“Great message,” another fan said.
“We’re winning the Super Bowl,” another offered.
Some fans added the “Jesus is Lord”. Some fans asked if the post was referencing God or other gods.
But, as with everything on social media, there were those who did not forget the team’s June 1 post on X. That one celebrated the start of Pride month.

Yes, the Jaguars were among the majority of NFL teams that proudly proclaimed their support for the LGBTQ movement on June 1.
That post, by the way, got 301,000 views — or about one-third as many as the one declaring God’s goodness.
