The Jacksonville Jaguars have revealed the new jersey numbers for the team's 10 free agent signees from last month.
The Jaguars came out swinging on the first day of the NFL's legal tampering period in March, making nine new additions on that first day, along with 10 signings in total.
As GM James Gladstone said, it was his goal to utilize free agency as a tool to elevate the roster floor, which he believes was accomplished.
"What we were seeking to do in pro free agency was to raise the floor of this football team and every player that we pursued and that we've now acquired is meeting that standard," Gladstone said via ESPN.
"And by being nothing more than who they are and who we know them to be, both on and off the field, they're going to do exactly what we had hoped they do. And that's level up this ecosystem."
While the number of additions may be reminiscent of past offseasons in Jacksonville, Gladstone didn't sacrifice short or long-term salary cap flexibility with these additions either.
Even with 10 new players, the Jaguars still rank in the top half of the NFL in salary cap space for the 2025 season and are in good standing in 2026 as well. These were shorter-term deals, all between one and three years, and were structured in a way that provides the Jaguars with flexibility and options down the road.
CB Jourdan Lewis: 2
WR Dyami Brown: 5
QB Nick Mullens: 12
S Eric Murray: 29
OL Chuma Edoga: 55
OL Patrick Mekari: 65
OL Robert Hainsey: 73
OL Fred Johnson: 74
TE Johny Mundt: 81
TE Hunter Long: 84
