The Jacksonville Jaguars have reportedly agreed to terms with center Robert Hainsey , according to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport . It's a three-year deal worth $21 million with $13 million guaranteed, per Rapoport.
Hainsey, 26, started a total of 35 games for the Buccaneers including a streak of 34 consecutive starts during the 2023-2024 seasons. He played for Jaguars head coach Liam Coen last season when Coen was the offensive coordinator for Tampa Bay.

But he was replaced by Graham Barton last season on the last year of his rookie contract. Hainsey will likely replace former Jaguars center Mitch Morse who announced his retirement last week.

The Jaguars have been active today in stocking their offensive line. They've reportedly agreed to terms with Chuma Edoga who can play guard and tackle and Patrick Mekari , who has the capability to play along all five spots.
Now, they add a center for quarterback Trevor Lawrence , who has had several injury bouts over the last two seasons.

If named the starter, Hainsey will make the third starting center in three seasons for the Jaguars and the fourth in five seasons.
The Jaguars also currently hold 10 picks in April's draft and may choose to draft players for their offensive line to further supplement a group that struggled last season.
