Bill Huber of the PackersReport.com reports that free agent CB Davon House will soon sign with a team, but it won’t be with the Packers.
Last we heard regarding House, Rob Demovsky of ESPN reported that the Packers had contacted his reps about a return to Green Bay there was “mutual interest” between the two parties.
However, it sounds like the Packers will have to look elsewhere for cornerback help.
It’s worth mentioning that signing him to a contract won’t impact a team’s compensatory picks, considering that he was released.
House, 27, is a former fourth-round pick of the Packers back in 2011. He spent four years in Green Bay before signing a four-year, $24.5 million contract that included $10 million guaranteed with the Jaguars back in 2015.
House was set to make base salaries of $6 million over the final two years of the agreement when the Jaguars released him in a move that freed up $6 million of available cap space.
In 2016, House appeared in all 16 games for the Jaguars and recorded 17 tackles and no sacks or interceptions. Pro Football Focus rates House as a below-average cornerback last year while playing 272 snaps for the Jaguars.
We’ll have more regarding where House will end up as the news is available.
