The Jacksonville Jaguars release 5 players
The Jaguars have released RB D.D. Terry, QB Lester Ricard, RB Derrick Wimbush, S Nick Sorensen and TE Jermaine Wiggins. D.D. Terry had an excellent pre-season but he was too far down on the depth chart at running back to make the Jaguars roster. He carried the football 17 times for 82 yards (4.8 ypc) and he also caught 1 pass for 29 yards. QB Lester Ricard made a good impression on the Jags’ front office but he was found to be expendable when Quinn Gray returned to health. Ricard completed 7 of 10 passes for 106 yards (104.6 QB Rating) in the pre-season. RB Derrick Wimbush also was caught in a numbers game but he only carried the football 3 times for -3 yards in the pre-season. Jermaine Wiggins only caught 1 pass for 1 yard in the pre-season by he was too far behind Mercedes Lewis and George Wrighster to make the team. Safety Nick Sorensen has been the Jags’ special teams ace the last couple of seasons but he has been passed up by other players. He finished the pre-season with 5 tackles.
