Team news: Jacksonville Jaguars

We have signed TE Tim Tebow.

Despite not playing in the NFL for nine seasons, Tim Tebow gets a one-year deal with the Jaguars. He's assumed to play tight end if he makes the squad and is currenly ranked as 4for4's TE61.

The #Jaguars are planning to sign QB-turned-TE Tim Tebow to a 1-year deal, per me and @TomPelissero, a deal that could be official in the next week or so. Nothing done yet. But he’ll have a chance to make the team to reunite with his mentor and college head coach Urban Meyer.

Tim Tebow hasn't played in a regular-season game in nine seasons and will be changing positions from QB to TE in 2021. If Tebow does make the final roster, there is little competition at the TE position in Jacksonville.

Update on a former first-round pick: Tim Tebow recently worked out for the #Jaguars, source said, and there has been at least some discussion of him signing. Oh, and he’s a tight end now.

Jaguars are giving former Lions' WR Marvin Jones a two-year, $14.5 million deal, including $9.2 million fully guaranteed, per source.

I figured Jones would sign with a contender, not with a team in rebuilding mode, but money talks, and the Jaguars have a lot to spend. Even at 31, Jones is a solid weapon for (likely) future No. 1 overall pick Trevor Lawrence. He posted 76-978-9 last season, and benefited from the extended absence of Kenny Golladay. In Jacksonville, he'll join a receiving corps that already features D.J. Chark and Laviska Shenault. The Jaguars also added Phillip Dorsett yesterday. Fantasy-wise Jones will be in the WR4/WR5 mix as a low-volume threat in the Jacksonville passing game.

Former Seahawks' RB Carlos Hyde reached agreement with the Jaguars on a two-year, $6 million deal, per source.

Carlos Hyde will join James Robinson in the Jaguars' backfield on a two-year deal worth $6 million. He's reunited with former Ohio State coach Urban Meyer.

WR Phillip Dorsett is signing with the Jaguars, per source. Urban Meyer wants speed and gets it.

On IR for all of last season in Seattle, Phillip Dorsett will join his fourth NFL team in 2021, after stints with the Colts, Patriots and Seahawks. Head coach Urban Meyer gets another speedy weapon to add to his talented arsenal.

Marvin Jones wants a chance to win a championship, and with the Detroit Lions entering rebuilding mode, that makes a return to Detroit unlikely when Jones hits free agency next month.

Jones said Thursday on SiriusXM NFL radio that “nothing’s off the table” as far as where he plays next season, but that a chance to win a Super Bowl is high on his list of priorities.

“At this point in my career, that’s what I want,” Jones said.

As an unrestricted free agent, it appears Marvin Jones is seeking employment outside of Detroit. He posted a respectable 76-978-9 line in the Lions' anemic offense in 2020, and should garner some looks when free agency opens on March 17.

Seahawks RB Carlos Hyde is questionable with a non-COVID related illness, according to John Boyle of the Seattle Seahawks.

Hyde has been the primary backup for Seattle and would be a schematic loss while the Seahawks try to lock in the top seed in the NFC.
