- Jaguars release veteran tight end during free agency
The Jacksonville Jaguars have not yet made an outside addition in free agency, but they've made a subtraction from the roster.
According to the NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, the Jaguars are releasing tight end Johnny Mundt .

Mundt signed a two-year deal worth $5.5 million with the Jaguars during the 2025 offseason. Releasing him, however, frees up $2.73 million in cap space for the 2026 season, per Over the Cap .
Before joining the Jaguars, Mundt spent his first five NFL seasons with the LA Rams and the three after that with the Minnesota Vikings . That experience in Sean McVay and Kevin O'Connell's systems likely made the transition to Liam Coen's relatively easy, and Mundt's familiarity may have helped with the implementation of the scheme early on.
Throughout his career, Mundt has primarily been a blocking tight end, which is the role he held in the Jaguars' offense.
