The brunt of the offseason is in the books and training camp is still off on the horizon. Join us in the NFL’s dead zone with a player-by-player review of the Jaguars roster ahead of the 2023 season.
When the Jacksonville Jaguars began retooling their defense to fit the vision of new defensive coordinator Mike Caldwell during the 2022 offseason, versatility was a treasured trait.
In former Pittsburgh Panthers safety Erick Hallett II, the Jaguars hope they added a defensive back capable of contributing in more than one spot on the defense.
While the team currently has 11 players listed at cornerback on the roster and seven at safety, Hallett is the only one listed solely as a defensive back. During his collegiate career, Hallett mostly played safety, but he likely projects more as a cornerback in Jacksonville. His skills at both spots could prove useful.
Contract (2023): $750,000 base salary, $38,553 prorated signing bonus, $788,553 cap hit.
Acquired: Jaguars drafted Hallett with the No. 208 overall pick in the sixth round of the 2023 NFL draft.
- 79.4 (2022 – PITT)
- 50.8 (2021 – PITT)
- 66.1 (2020 – PITT)
- 60.0 (2019 – PITT)
Statistics:

- Three interceptions, two forced fumbles, 2.5 tackles for loss, 72 tackles (2021)
- Two interceptions, two tackles for loss, 30 tackles (2020)
