Table tennis, anyone? Several Jacksonville Jaguars players take part in competitive ping-pong in the locker room, which has helped lighten the mood and build team chemistry. 📖 more: ✍ by Gene Frenette / Florida Times-Union
Singles or doubles, it doesn’t matter. Before or after practice or whenever there’s some down time, ping-pong games are usually going on continuously when players are in the locker room.
During Pederson’s five years with the Philadelphia Eagles, there was a players lounge with a pool table, shuffleboard and a ping-pong table, similar to what the Jaguars will have when their renovated facility is completed. It’s C.J. Beathard, the backup to quarterback Trevor Lawrence, that is unanimously lauded as the team’s best player. Punter Logan Cooke, who is uber-competitive about any game, describes the gap between Beathard and everybody else using a golf analogy.
One of the reasons Beathard has the jump on many of his teammates is he grew up in the small town of Thompson’s Station, Tenn., about 30 miles south of Nashville, with a ping-pong table in his house. He and brothers Tucker and Clay, who passed away in 2019, played often. Take, for example, a Wednesday post-practice during the Kansas City Chiefs game week. Matiscik got into a friendly ping-pong conversation with Beathard, insisting that he and a teammate had beaten Beathard and Lawrence three consecutive times at one point in doubles.
