The Jaguars have signed CJ Beathard to a contract extension, the team announced Friday, keeping the veteran quarterback in Jacksonville ahead of the upcoming free agency period.
The franchise did not disclose the terms of the extension but NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports that the deal will be for two years.
Beathard, a 2017 third-round pick out of Iowa, has spent the last two seasons with the Jags, serving as the backup to former No. 1 pick Trevor Lawrence. He stands to continue in that role in 2023 after appearing in six games for Jacksonville across the previous two years.
