Breaking: Jaguars Agree Deal To Sign $7.4 Million OL as Undrafted Free Agent
• You can check all the undrafted free agents the Jaguars will or have signed after the 2024 NFL Draft.
The Jacksonville Jaguars emerged from the 2024 NFL Draft with a good roster. They were able to meet all of their needs and add depth along the way. However, there is still work to be done, since it is now time to begin signing athletes who did not have their names called in the draft.
Undrafted free agents, unlike those picked in rounds 1-7, have the freedom to sign with any team and are often sought after the draft. Clubs begin making calls in the middle of the seventh round, therefore many players are signed just moments after the draft ends.
Last year, Jacksonville signed ten such guys. Among the group, wide receiver Elijah Cooks made the initial 53-man roster to begin the season.
With that in mind, here’s a list of the undrafted free agents the Jaguars plan to sign in the next hours and days.

Proctor has lost time with injuries over the past six seasons. Perhaps it is why he slid. Last year, he had 47 total tackles, four for a loss, and had one interception.
