According to a report from Pro Football Focus’ Doug Kyed, the Jaguars will tender restricted free agent safety Andrew Wingard at right of first refusal. Wingard was set to hit the open market if not tendered prior to the new league year opening on Wednesday, March 16 at 4 p.m. ET.
With a right of first refusal, the Jaguars will be able to match any offer that Wingard receives on the open market. If they opt not to, he will join the new franchise.
Wingard, 25, originally signed with the team in 2019 as an undrafted free agent out of Wyoming.
