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:

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.

NFL Practice Squad Updates: 10/6/20

Here are Tuesday’s practice squad updates:

Carolina Panthers

Jacksonville Jaguars

Seattle Seahawks

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

  • Placed on practice squad suspended list: RB Kenjon Barner (four-game PED ban)

Minor NFL Transactions: 10/5/20

On the heels of the Texans’ surprise firing of Bill O’Brien, we’ve got some much more tame moves to pass along. Here are today’s minor transactions:

Green Bay Packers

  • Signed to 53-man roster from practice squad: WR Reggie Begelton

Jacksonville Jaguars

Philadelphia Eagles

With Davante Adams and Allen Lazard both out, it makes sense why the Packers are bolstering the receiving corp. Begelton is a 2016 UDFA from Lamar who spent the past three seasons in the CFL. If he gets on the field for the Packers, it’ll be his first NFL action. Killins is an undrafted rookie from UCF, who made his pro debut on Sunday Night Football last night. He carried the ball once for -12 yards and caught one pass for two yards. He’ll likely head back to the practice squad if he clears waivers.

Gilchrist joined the Jags in late November and appeared in each of the team’s last three games. His Jacksonville stint ends with two tackles on 53 defensive snaps and 19 special teams plays. The 31-year-old has started in 98 games as a pro for the Chargers, Jets, Texans, and Raiders.

Middleton, meanwhile, has 12 total NFL games on his resume, including seven last year for the Jets. For his career, he has 28 tackles and four passes defensed.
