Jaguars spend little in NFL free agency this offseason
Summary

The Jacksonville Jaguars were among the lowest spenders during NFL free agency, totaling $57.96 million, ranking 30th in the league. Their only significant external acquisition was running back Chris Rodriguez, signed to a two-year deal worth $10 million. The team retained some key players, including Montaric Brown and Dennis Gardeck, but much of their roster change stemmed from free agent losses and the NFL draft. General Manager James Gladstone appears to be prioritizing 2027 compensatory draft picks and has limited salary cap space. The focus on continuity is seen as crucial for the team's performance, especially after a successful 13-win season.
