Jaguars’ JaMycal Hasty’s Extension Numbers Revealed

How much is JaMychal Hasty set to make in his second contract with Jacksonville?

Another member of the 2022 Jacksonville Jaguars is staying home.

After re-signing backup quarterback C.J. Beathard a couple of days prior, the Jags quickly returned to work, locking in on running back JaMycal Hasty.

Aaron Wilson of KRPC 2 in Houston, Texas reported that the contract is for two years with a max value of $3.2 million, a team-friendly extension that also gives Hasty security entering his fourth NFL season.

After spending the first two years of his career in San Fransisco as an undrafted free agent, Hasty quickly proved to Jacksonville in 2022 that he is a hard worker and versatile both out of the backfield and on special teams.

For the season Hasty rushed for 194 yards, amassed 20 catches for 126 yards, and returned four kicks for the Jags for 97 total yards, appearing in all 17 games for the first time in his young NFL career.

With the solid production in limited snaps, Hasty earned his chance to continue to build on last season’s workload. Jaguars offensive coordinator Press Taylor noted last December that there are certain elements of Hasty’s game that are similar to lead back Travis Etienne.

“Yeah, there’s certainly elements to his game that marry some of the things that we have built in for Travis, so JaMycal had a big third down conversion where they busted coverage, but that’s something that Travis had really been the one that repped all week, and you don’t have much hesitation throwing him out there to put him in a situation where he’s run that route, he’s done it a certain number of times,” Taylor said a few days after a comeback victory over the Baltimore Ravens.

“Now, was he featured on that during the week? Probably not. We try to sneak in walkthrough reps so those guys all know if somebody goes down, they know the assignment, they know what to do, we’ll sneak off those types of throws to the side with Trevor [QB Trevor Lawrence] just in case something like that were to come up. As a coach, it makes you feel good when that comes up and that guy is ready to roll, that guy executes at a high level. Trevor doesn’t blink that all the sudden there’s a new guy standing next to him on the primary route in a third down concept because he’s got a lot of trust built into JaMycal. JaMycal was a guy that joined us right at the start of the season, so now, we’ve had 13-14 weeks to spend time with him and try to get on the same page.”
