One big reason the Jacksonville Jaguars opted not to go on a spending spree in free agency is that they'll soon have to start giving extensions to players entering contract years. Their 2023 draft class has produced several key contributors, and it would make sense to start locking them up.
Picking offensive tackle Anton Harrison's fifth-year option should be a no-brainer, as the Jags would have him under contract through 2027. That, in turn, will give the team a bit of cushion to work with. On the other hand, Jacksonville will need to make decisions on wide receiver Parker Washington, tight end Brenton Strange, and safety Antonio Johnson.
