Jaguars Sign Jakobi Meyers to Three-Year, $60 Million Extension

Jacksonville rewarded his six-game surge to preserve continuity for Trevor Lawrence.

Overview

  • The team announced the signing Friday, with multiple outlets reporting a three-year, $60 million contract that includes $40 million guaranteed and runs through 2028.
  • Jacksonville acquired Meyers from the Raiders in early November for 2026 fourth- and sixth-round draft picks.
  • In six games with the Jaguars, he has 27 receptions for 355 yards and three touchdowns as the team has gone 5-1 and averaged 31.8 points per game.
  • Team officials praised his reliability and fit, with GM James Gladstone highlighting his sure hands as a “superpower” and coaches noting immediate chemistry with Trevor Lawrence.
  • The $20 million average annual value ranks roughly 25th among wide receivers and the extension removes him from the 2026 free-agent class as the Jaguars shape their receiving group with Brian Thomas Jr. and the injured Travis Hunter.
