After a day spent cutting their roster closer to the maximum 53-player limit, the Jacksonville Jaguars managed to trade receiver Laviska Shenault to the Carolina Panthers, effectively getting a return for a talent they may have otherwise cut outright. The compensation they’ll be getting back is still unclear, though it is likely that they’ll receive a conditional draft pick for Shenault in a deal that should pave the way for preseason standout Tim Jones to make the final roster.
Shenault has been a mercurial presence on the Jaguars offense since 2020 when Jacksonville selected him with a second-round pick out of the University of Colorado. He has made some highlight reel worthy catches for the team but hasn’t managed to play a full season to this point in his career.
