With NFL free agency on the horizon, let’s begin tracking the early rumors and reports surrounding the Jacksonville Jaguars<\/a>.<\/p>\n On Monday, March 9th, at 12:00 PM ET, the NFL’s legal tampering window opens. At this point, free agents can begin negotiating deals with new teams.<\/p>\n Then, on March 11th, at 4:00 PM ET, free agency officially opens, and any agreed-upon deals over the previous two days become official at that time.<\/p>\n Before free agency arrives, however, the Jaguars<\/a> have some work to do with the salary cap. Jacksonville ranks near the bottom<\/a> in salary cap space currently, with James Gladstone needing to make some cap maneuvers to create room to operate.<\/p>\n As of now, here are the latest reports and rumors surrounding the Jaguars. We will update this article as new info comes in.<\/p>\n Expert NFL picks: Exclusive betting insights only at USA TODAY.<\/a>Jaguars reportedly re-sign TE Quintin Morris<\/p>\n For more on this move, you can find our breakdown here<\/a>.<\/p>\n A “nice market” for Travis Etienne<\/p>\n The Jaguars’ running back will be one of the best available players at this position. Coming out of the NFL combine, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler<\/a> reported that Etienne “should have a nice market.”<\/p>\n Montaric Brown “well-positioned” in CB market<\/p>\n Fowler listed Brown among his “sleeper free agents” after speaking with NFL execs.<\/p>\n “He is well-positioned in the CB market after the top players are signed,” Fowler wrote. In\u00a0Jordan Reid’s<\/a>\u00a0latest mock draft, he noted that, “Montaric Brown<\/a>\u00a0could price himself out of Jacksonville’s plans.”<\/p>\n Re-signing Brown would make a lot of sense for the Jaguars, but they could have some competition to do so.<\/p>\n Latest on Andrew Wingard<\/p>\n Wrapping up Fowler’s NFL combine notes, he also placed Andrew Wingard in the “sleeper free agent” category, adding that he will have the opportunity to be a start for a team.<\/p>\n “He capitalized on a starter role in Jacksonville and has early interest — not on a huge scale, but he will be a starter somewhere,” Fowler wrote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Updated March 4, 2026, 9:35 a.m. ET With NFL free agency on the horizon, let’s begin tracking the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":150712,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[31,116,118,117,1254,9548,298,424,336,420,779,21366,342,332,442,49,426,300,4729,34],"class_list":{"0":"post-178395","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-jacksonville","8":"tag-accessfree","9":"tag-jacksonville","10":"tag-jacksonville-headlines","11":"tag-jacksonville-news","12":"tag-sstssportsnfljaguars","13":"tag-sstsnjaguars","14":"tag-tagamerican-football","15":"tag-tagandrew-wingard","16":"tag-tagespn-inc","17":"tag-tagjacksonville-jaguars","18":"tag-taglive-coverage","19":"tag-tagmontaric-brown","20":"tag-tagnational-sports","21":"tag-tagnfl","22":"tag-tagnfl-hub","23":"tag-tagoverall-neutral","24":"tag-tagquintin-morris","25":"tag-tagsports-news","26":"tag-tagtravis-etienne-jr","27":"tag-typestory"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178395","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=178395"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178395\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/150712"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=178395"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=178395"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=178395"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
