Per NFL insider Ian Rapoport, the Jaguars came to terms with Browns veteran linebacker Joe Schobert and will sign him when the new league year begins.
Per Rapoport, the deal is a five-year deal worth $53.75 million that averages $10.75 million per year. The signing bonus on the contract was $12 million and $22.5 million is guaranteed.
Schobert was quite productive for the Browns, racking up 408 combined tackles (15 of which were tackles for loss), 8.5 sacks, six interceptions, and seven forced fumbles.
The addition of Schobert is a huge one for the Jags as it means the Jags will be moving Myles Jack to outside linebacker where he is better suited to flourish
