JACKSONVILLE – NFL free agency does not start until Tuesday but the Jaguars are already making moves. The team signed former Seahawks defensive end Red Bryant to a four-year deal on Saturday.
Jaguars head coach Gus Bradley knows Bryant well after spending four seasons with the Seahawks as their defensive coordinator. In fact, Bradley was instrumental in moving Bryant from defensive tackle to defensive end.
