Jacksonville Jaguars And Star Tight End Have Mutual Interest Ahead Of Free Agency

While many people expected the Jacksonville Jaguars to take a step forward in 2022, no one quite saw this coming, as their first year under Doug Pederson saw massive steps taken with this offence, all the way to an AFC South crown and an impressive playoff victory.

One of the biggest reasons for the success is the way their 2022 free agent class played, highlighted by Zay Jones, Christian Kirk and Evan Engram, the latter of which has mutual interest with the team in coming back for the 2023 season.

On the year, Engram racked up 73 catches for 766 yards and 4 Touchdowns, and build a fantastic chemistry with Trevor Lawrence, and while he will cost a lot for the Jags, it will be a good move for both sides to continue building this young roster.
