The Jaguars already exercised the fifth-year option in the deal Shareef Miller Jersey , meaning he?s also tied to the club for $13.7 million in 2020.The Jaguars have made it clear they want the former Florida State standout to be a long-term piece of their defense.

Smith said last month he plans to sit out the 2019 season to ?get my world in order.??We all love football dearly, of course, but that is not everything. ? It?s not everything. He has a life.
