Jaguars TE Marcedes Lewis tries to rally fans on Twitter
As the Jaguars prepare for their annual trip to London amid a 1-5 start, tight end Marcedes Lewis took time to encourage the team's fan base not to give up hope.
Lewis in his 10th season is the longest-tenured Jaguar and was member of the franchise's last playoff time, in 2007.
Monday, he took to Twitter to remind fans that being a fan is a commitment that transcends wins and loses.
The response he received was mixed.
Lewis and the Jaguars will try to raise fans' spirits with a win against the Bills on Sunday.
It's not Duval til we win, it's not Duval til we lose. It's Duval Til We Die. #DTWD #MOREJAX pic.twitter.com/6R1hGWcSwj

@MarcedesLewis89 you dont have a right to call out fans. These have been THE most patient fans in the league. Disgraceful.
