Cole Van Lanen has signed a three-year deal to remain in Jacksonville as reported by Ian Rapoport. The deal is worth $51 million with $32.5 million guaranteed. (Source: Ian Rapoport on X)
Fantasy Impact: Originally drafted in the sixth round by the Packers in the 2021 NFL Draft, Van Lanen was traded to Jacksonville right before the 2022 season and has a member of the Jaguars ever since. He has seen snaps at every position along the offensive line, except center, this season and has started each of the last nine games for the Jaguars. Jacksonville is 8-1 in those games and can clinch the AFC South title with a win on Sunday against the Titans. He has allowed only one sack all season and has committed just three penalties.

Fantasy Impact: With the season finale being meaningless for both teams and Geno suffering a high ankle sprain last Sunday, it’s no surprise that he will miss Week 18. Kenny Pickett will likely start in his place.
