CINCINNATI —  Former Cincinnati tight end Josiah Deguara has a new NFL home with the Jacksonville Jaguars after playing for the Packers since 2020.

Drafted in the third round of the 2020 NFL Draft out of Cincinnati, he missed most of his rookie season due to a torn ACL. The former Bearcat has caught 47 passes for 436 yards and two touchdowns since returning from the injury.

The contract is a one-year deal with Jacksonville according to Bleacher Report's Jordan Schultz.
