The Jacksonville Jaguars<\/a> have signed offensive lineman Cole Van Lanen to a three-year contract extension, so he is no longer going to hit free agency this offseason.<\/p>\n

But what other Jaguars’ players are still set to be free agents in 2026?<\/p>\n

The Van Lanen extension<\/a> comes not long after the Jaguars signed wide receiver Jakobi Meyers to an extension of his own.<\/p>\n

According to ESPN’s Michael DiRocco<\/a>, the Jaguars prioritized those deals because using the franchise tag on either player this offseason was not going to be an option.<\/p>\n

Perhaps there are some other deals that GM James Gladstone will want to get done before free agency in March.<\/p>\n

As of now, the Jacksonville Jaguars<\/a> are projected to be $2.97 million over the projected 2026 salary cap, per Over the Cap<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Once the offseason arrives, Gladstone will have to do some maneuvering to free up additional space.<\/p>\n
