The Jacksonville Jaguars and veteran linebacker Akeem Dent reportedly came to terms Monday on a contract.

Mike Garafolo of NFL Network first reported the contract details.

Dent has spent most of his time as a reserve middle linebacker and a contributor on special teams since the Atlanta Falcons selected him in the third round of the 2011 draft. He's made just 32 starts across six NFL seasons, three in Atlanta and three with the Houston Texans.

The 29-year-old Georgia product failed to make much of an impact for the Texans last season.
