Following the Jacksonville Jaguars' Week 13 win over the Tennessee Titans, let's take a look at which players received the highest grades from Pro Football Focus and which players didn't.
Below is a look at PFF's grading system for some context. While this metric is very helpful when it comes to quantifying a player's performance, PFF's grading system isn't the be-all and end-all either. It is one metric out of many that are out there.

80-89.9: High quality
70-79.9: Good
60-69.9: Above average
50-59.9: Average
40-49.9: Below average
39.9 or less: Poor
Here are the Jaguars' five highest-graded players on offense and defense, along with the three lowest-graded players overall.
Jaguars' 5 highest-graded players on offense vs. Titans
QB Trevor Lawrence: 84.2
OL Cole Van Lanen: 79.6
WR Jakobi Meyers: 74.7
TE Brenton Strange: 73.1
OL Anton Harrison
Lawrence was excellent, throwing for 229 yards with two touchdowns and no turnover-worthy plays, according to PFF. He also pushed the ball downfield and found success doing so, averaging 8.5 yards per pass attempt.
Van Lanen has filled a do-it-all role on the offensive line for the Jaguars, and on Sunday, he played both right guard and left tackle. Meyers led the team in receiving and hauled in a touchdown, while Strange found the end zone as well, and was again very good as a blocker.

Jaguars' 5 highest graded players on defense vs. Titans
DE Josh Hines-Allen: 86.3
S Andrew Wingard: 84.5
CB Montaric Brown: 78.1
LB Foye Oluokun: 77.7
S Antonio Johnson: 77.4
Hines-Allen recorded seven of the Jaguars' 19 quarterback pressures with two sacks. At safety, Wingard and Johnson combined for seven tackles and allowed two receptions for just 10 yards with a pass breakup.
Brown allowed six receptions on seven targets but gave up a grand total of 38 yards. He also made seven tackles. Oluokun made seven tackles as well and held pass-catchers to just 4.2 yards per catch.
Jaguars' 3 lowest-graded players vs. Titans in Week 13
DT DaVon Hamilton: 28.3
C Robert Hainsey: 36.0
WR Austin Trammell: 39.9
Hamilton played only 15 snaps but didn't log any stats and had a missed tackle, which brought his overall grade down. With that said, let's not overlook Hamilton's contributions as a long-snapper while Ross Matiscik was sidelined.
Hainsey gave up five pressures and a sack. Trammell was 0-for-3 when targeted and had a drop.
