The Jaguars front office has made it known the franchise would like to work a deal out to keep defensive end Yannick Ngakoue for the 2020 season. Getting a deal done, however, may not be as easy as it would appear.
According to FanSided.com’s Matt Verderame, it appears the star pass rusher is headed for the franchise tag, which would allow the team to work out a long-term deal for the future. Contract negotiations between Ngakoue’s camp and the Jaguars broke down and came to a screeching halt prior to the start of training camp last season.
