Jaguars waive 4 players, sign 3 in addition to WR Willie Johnson IV

In addition to signing Willlie Johnson IV, the Jags announced that they signed three other tryout players in TE Naz Bohannon and receivers Marvin Hall and Ryan McDaniel.

The Jacksonville Jaguars made some post rookie minicamp roster moves by waiving four players in receivers Terry Godwin and Josh Hammond, offensive lineman Marcus Tatum, and safety Sean Mahone. These moves came after the team announced that they signed four rookie minicamp tryout players in tight end Naz Bohannon and receivers Willie Johnson IV, Marvin Hall, and Ryan McDaniel.

Johnson’s signing was reported yesterday by ESPN’s Adam Schefter. However, the signings of Bohannon, Hall, and McDaniel were announced by the team.

Bohannon joined the Jags this weekend for rookie minicamp after spending 2021 on Clemson’s basketball team. The 6-feet-5, 232-pound forward also played basketball for Youngstown State the four years prior to his time at Clemson and accumulated 1,425 points and 1,124 rebounds throughout his college tenure.

Hall, who attended the University of Washington, is a veteran player who has been in the NFL since 2016. He initially entered the NFL as an undrafted player for the Oakland Raiders and has made various stops since that time. Hall has taken the field for 47 games throughout his NFL career and those games came through stints with the Atlanta Falcons, Cleveland Browns, and Detroit Lions. He will enter his tenure with the Jags with 38 career catches for 782 yards and five touchdowns.

McDaniel, who went undrafted this offseason, played for North Carolina Central from 2018-21. He finished his career there with 100 catches for 1,208 yards. His career-high came in 2021 when he accumulated 52 receptions for 680 yards. His 2021 season also came with a MEAC Offensive Player of the Week award during Week 4 of his last collegiate season as he hauled in nine catches for 178 yards against North Carolina A&T.

With these new additions, the Jags now have 13 receivers on the roster and seven tight ends.
