According to a report from NFL Network, the Jacksonville Jaguars have traded veteran defensive lineman Roy Robertson-Harris to the Seattle Seahawks in exchange for a late-round pick in the 2026 NFL draft.
The move comes after the Jaguars were defeated by the Chicago Bears in London, England over the weekend. Robertson-Harris logged a sack in Jacksonville’s loss to Chicago and should prove to be an asset for Seattle’s defensive line after the Seahawks’ loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6.
Pelissero’s report didn’t mention the exact compensation that the Jaguars received for Robertson-Harris, and it remains unclear if the draft pick Jacksonville received might be conditional.

Though this move isn’t likely to have a major impact on the trajectory of either team, Robertson-Harris has an excellent opportunity to shine in his new role.
