Here are Wednesday’s AFC South transactions, which will continue to be updated throughout the day.

Jaguars Move Down To 53-Man Roster
The Jaguars are the latest team to squeeze their roster down to 53 players Tuesday. Here are the players the Urban Meyer-led regime cut to get there:
Released:
- WR Pharoh Cooper
- OL Jermaine Eluemunor
- WR Devin Smith
- WR Laquon Treadwell
- S Jarrod Wilson
Waived:
- CB Lorenzo Burns
- WR Jalen Camp
- DL Doug Costin
- WR Jeff Cotton Jr.
- RB Nathan Cottrell
- TE Tyler Davis
- TE Ben Ellefson
- WR Josh Hammond
- WR Collin Johnson
- WR Tevin Jones
- QB Jake Luton
- OL K.C. McDermott
- RB Devine Ozigbo
- OL Austen Pleasants
- DB Brandon Rusnak
- OL Badar Traore
- OL Tre’Vour Wallace-Simms
- LB Quincy Williams
Placed on reserve/NFI list:
- LB Dylan Moses
Some big names at wideout appear on this list, and the Jags also released former first-round pick Phillip Dorsett earlier Tuesday. Cooper is a former All-Pro kick returner who has held regular return gigs since that 2017 breakout. The fifth-year role player was the Cardinals’ primary return man in 2019 and filled the same role with the Panthers last season. Like Dorsett, Treadwell arrived as a first-round pick. But the former Vikings draftee has not been able to find steady footing in the league.
Jacksonville drafted Williams in the 2019 third round — two rounds after younger brother Quinnen went to the Jets — but the young linebacker did not start a game in 2020. Luton did, but the Oregon State product did not profile as a steady backup option. The Jags are going with Meyer-era investments Trevor Lawrence and C.J. Beathard at QB. The Wilson move comes after the veteran safety operated as a Jags back-line starter for the past two seasons.

Jaguars To Place 12 Practice Squad Players On Reserve/COVID-19 List
The NFL’s expanded coronavirus protocols have resulted in more players landing on teams’ respective reserve/COVID-19 lists. The Jaguars have the most crowded list, as of Saturday afternoon.
The Jags placed 12 of their 16 practice squad players on their reserve/COVID-19 list, Tom Pelissero of NFL.com tweets. This does not yet appear to be a case of a dozen positive tests. Jacksonville P-squad offensive lineman K.C. McDermott tested positive, and the league’s new contact tracing protocols have led the team to put the bulk of its practice squad on the COVID list for the time being.
Here are the players who joined McDermott on the Jags’ reserve/COVID list:
- RB Nathan Cottrell
- TE Ben Ellefson
- LB Nate Evans
- LB Joe Giles-Harris
- WR Terry Godwin
- WR Josh Hammond
- T Jared Hilbers
- DB Doug Middleton
- DB Josh Nurse
- T Austen Pleasents
- WR Trey Quinn
Suspended defensive end Josh Mauro will join McDermott and the slew of P-squad players on the COVID-19 list, Pelissero adds (on Twitter). Mauro has been suspended throughout the season for a positive PED test.
Considering players placed on this list must isolate for five days, the Jaguars will need to make some moves to fill out a practice squad following their Week 6 game. Even players who are asymptomatic after close contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19 must isolate for at least five days. The Jags face the Chargers next Sunday; there will be several new P-squad players to start their next week of practice.
Mike Glennon Joins Jaguars’ Practice Squad
Mike Glennon missed the Jaguars’ final roster cut, but he’s found a home on Jacksonville’s practice squad, per a club announcement. The 30-year-old quarterback will be joined by former Washington wide receiver Trey Quinn, plus 14 other players to reach the max. Here’s the full list:
- RB Nathan Cottrell
- TE Ben Ellefson
- LB Nate Evans
- TE Matt Flanagan
- LB Joe Giles-Harris
- WR Terry Godwin
- WR Josh Hammond
- CB Amari Henderson
- CB Sidney Jones
- OL K.C. McDermott
- OL Austen Pleasants
- DL Caraun Reid
- OL Tre’Vour Wallace-Simms
- P Brandon Wright
Glennon seemed like a natural choice to backup young starter Gardner Minshew, but he ultimately lost out to sixth-round pick Jake Luton. The veteran has 22 starts to his credit, but he’s been relegated to a backup at this stage of his career. Since entering the league, Glennon has thrown 36 touchdowns with 20 interceptions. Over the last two years, he’s thrown just 31 passes in total.
The Jaguars’ drop to the 53-man limit also included the release of fellow QB Joshua Dobbs, who was quickly scooped up by his old friends in Pittsburgh. Talented veteran cornerback Tramaine Brock was also pulled from the active roster thanks to a season-ending injury.
