Overview

  • Emmanuel Ogbah has officially signed a one-year contract worth up to $5 million with the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to his agent Drew Rosenhaus.
  • The move reunites Ogbah with Jaguars defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile, who coached him during his time with the Miami Dolphins from 2020 to 2023.
  • Ogbah brings nine years of NFL experience, including 47.5 career sacks and 112 quarterback hits in 123 games across stints with Cleveland, Kansas City, and Miami.
  • He recorded back-to-back nine-sack seasons in 2020 and 2021 with the Dolphins before injuries and role changes impacted his production in subsequent years.
  • The Jaguars aim to bolster their pass rush, which has heavily relied on Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker, by adding Ogbah's veteran presence to their defensive line.
