Twitter Tuesday: Let The Fun Times Continue In Duval

Ahhhh, what a nice breath of fresh air. After a week hiatus, Roaring Black & Teal is back in action. Did everyone else enjoy the bye week as much as I did? It was the first weekend since August I didn’t have to suffer watching one of my two beloved teams lose. Thanks Football Gods for scheduling USF & Jacksonville to go on bye week at the same time.

Since the Jaguars were on a bye week, it seems to be a low key week in Duval. THANK YOU Jesus… No, not you Tebow.

Here are a few trending topics coming out of EverBank:

  • Chris Harris: With Dwight Lowery & Dawan Landry out due to injuries, Jacksonville signed verteran Safety Chris Harris. It’s rumored that the former Bears & Lions safety could start on Sunday versus the Raiders.
  • London: Shahid Khan & Josh Scobee traveled to London on their bye week to promote their first game in the International Series.
  • 49ers: It was announced this week that Jacksonville will host the San Francisco 49ers in London.

The Guide To Jacksonville’s Free Agency

Are you hanging in there NFL fans? It’s been a long few weeks since I’ve been able to enjoy a Sunday filled with lots teal, screaming, ice cold beer & my fellow Jags fans.

Luckily there will be a bit more action coming from Jacksonville in the upcoming weeks.

Free agency is beginning which means one thing… NFL season is coming! This is just the first step in the process.

Free agency may get a little crazy tomorrow so I figured I’d help you keep track of who is doing what.

These players are unrestricted free agents meaning they are free to negotiate and sign with any team.

 

Jacksconville already sealed the deal with a few key players.

The Jaguars have already applied the franchise tag to Scobee. He has been in Jacksonville since day one and he also expressed his interested to stay put.

Whimper got a nice raise this off season considering in 2011 his base salary was $685,000. He signed a new deal for two years in which he will earn up to $5 million.

Mathis received a one year deal worth $5 million. A small but sweet increase over his $4.45 million base salary.
