Jihad Ward agrees to a deal with the Jags
Defensive end Jihad Ward is expected to sign with the Jacksonville Jaguars, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Fantasy Impact
Rapoport noted that Ward's former defensive line coach in Baltimore, Joe Cullen, is now the defensive coordinator for the Jaguars, so there's some familiarity there. Ward should help boost what was a poor pass rushing unit in 2020 in Jacksonville.
