Announced yesterday, the Jaguars placed 2020 free-agent signee running back Chris Thompson on the team’s reserve/injured list with a back injury. The team also re-signed defensive lineman Caraun Reid to the practice squad.
Thompson, 30, signed with the Jaguars as an unrestricted free agent earlier this spring and was expected to play a major role in offensive coordinator Jay Gruden’s offense as a third-down receiving back. On the year, Thompson caught 20 passes for 146 yards in eight games. He ran the football just seven times for 20 yards.
