Rodriguez signed a two-year, $10 million deal to join the Jaguars. Last season in Washington, he took on a much larger role, carrying the ball 112 times and averaging 4.5 yards per attempt. Rodriguez will provide added experience at the position and could shoulder the workload with Bhayshul Tuten in the run game, while LeQuint Allen continues to see the field during pass situations.
Andrew Wingard signs with the Cardinals
This is reportedly a one-year, $3 million deal for Wingard. Still under contract at safety for the Jaguars are Eric Murray, Antonio Johnson, Rayuan Lane, and Caleb Ransaw.

According to Demetrius Harvey for the Florida Times-Union, the Jaguars are non-tendering Cephus, who was an exclusive rights free agent. This, in turn, makes Cephus an unrestricted free agent and able to sign where he pleases.
