After six seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars, the man who inspired the rebirth of Tuscaloosa, Ala., following the 2011 tornado is on the move. Jacksonville decided to release Carson Tinker on Friday of last week and for the 29-year-old, he is a free agent looking for an NFL home.
Prior to being let go, Tinker was signed to the Jaguars as an undrafted free agent in 2013 and assisted the team to an AFC South title in 2017 – its first postseason berth since 2007.
Before coming to the National Football League, Tinker was a long snapper for four years at the University of Alabama from 2008 to 2012.
