Jaguars Sign Veteran RB Ameer Abdullah Among Roster Moves
- On Monday, the Jacksonville Jaguars signed veteran running back Ameer Abdullah while waiving second-year running back Ja'Quinden Jackson to adjust their roster depth.
- Entering his 12th NFL season, Abdullah brings 154 career games and more than 4,300 career kickoff return yards across five different clubs since his 2015 draft.
- Abdullah joins a young Jacksonville running back group that has combined for only 151 career games and eight starts, alongside Bhayshul Tuten, LeQuint Allen, DeeJay Dallas, Chris Rodriguez Jr., and J'Mari Taylor.
- The Jaguars waived Jackson following the strong impression of undrafted free agent J'Mari Taylor, who offers greater utility on passing downs and returner upside the team values.
- Abdullah will likely compete for special teams opportunities under coordinator Heath Farwell, reflecting Jacksonville's broader strategy to develop depth through veteran and young talent rotation.
