The Jacksonville Jaguars released two-time Pro Bowl tight end Evan Engram, according to multiple reports Thursday.
Engram was selected by the New York Giants in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft. He spent five seasons with the franchise, earning a Pro Bowl nod in 2020.
Engram signed with the Jaguars 2022. He has posted three successful seasons in Duval, including his 2023 Pro Bowl season in which he hauled in 114 receptions (second-most in franchise history) for 963 yards and four touchdowns.
Last season, the veteran tight end logged only nine games due to injuries but still recorded 47 receptions for 365 yards and one TD. He had a respectable PFF grade of 72.5 (11th among tight ends).
The 30-year-old was set to enter the final season of his three-year, $41.25 million contract. His release will free up $5.98 million in cap space, per ESPN. The Jaguars will still be on the hook for $13.5 million in dead money.
The Jaguars are looking to shake up their roster following a disappointing 4-13 season. They reportedly traded wide receiver Christian Kirk to the division rival Houston Texans earlier Thursday.
