Jaguars Exercise OLB Josh Allenโ€™s Fifth-Year Option

The Jacksonville Jaguars announced on Thursday they have exercised OLB Josh Allenโ€˜s fifth-year option.

Allen, 24, is a former first-round pick of the Jaguars back in 2019. Heโ€™s currently in the fourth year of his four-year, $22,742,636 rookie contract that included a $14,560,100 signing bonus.
