Jarvis Landry was sidelined for the 2023 season, but he is aiming to return in advance of the coming campaign. The veteran wideout is expected to participate in the Jaguars’ rookie minicamp, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. 
Landry established himself as one of the league’s top slot receivers during the first six years of his career. During that span, he drew between 101 and 166 targets each season, eclipsing 1,100 yards three times. That production helped earn the former second-rounder five consecutive Pro Bowl nods straddling his tenure with the Dolphins and Browns.
In his final two seasons in Cleveland, though, Landry saw his involvement in the team’s offense and statistical output drop off. The LSU alum was released following the 2022 campaign, and the possibility of remaining with the Browns on a less lucrative pact soon went away. Landry ultimately joined the Saints on a one-year pact in an attempt to provide New Orleans with a complementary receiving option.
Injuries limited him to just nine contests, however, and Landry missed consecutive games at multiple points in the campaign. While his Saints debut (seven catches, 114 yards) was impressive, his subsequent performances never topped 37 yards. After a full campaign spent away from the game, though, it will be interesting to see if Landy is able to contribute as a secondary pass-catcher on a new team.
The 31-year-old will participate in a Jaguars camp featuring Brian Thomas Jr., the team’s first-round selection. Jacksonville lost Calvin Ridley in free agency, and Thomas will join veterans Gabe Davis and Devin Duvernay as new faces in the team’s receiving corps. Landry’s inclusion in the camp may not yield interest from the Jags specifically, but if he lands on the radar of other teams he will join the list of veteran wideouts available in the post-draft wave of free agency.
Did he ever really leave…?
I mean he spent all 2023 off a roster.
That’s kind of my point. He never announced that he left, so one would need to leave in order to return.
Oh ok
I’d take Landry over his old buddy Odell
The Jags are stacking up the LSU products, aren’t they?
Good luck
If Landry is healthy, he runs good routes, has sure hands, willing to catch in traffic. Landry gets less headlines as he makes the work of an NFL receiver look easy.
The circus catch boys are doing it wrong.
Somebody is out of money!
