The Jacksonville Jaguars have addressed their special teams woes following a loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in London by signing veteran long snapper Jacob Bobenmoyer. The move comes in the wake of Ross Matiscik's shoulder injury, which forced defensive tackle DaVon Hamilton to step in and execute the snap on the game-winning field goal.
Matiscik, an All-Pro, will not be placed on injured reserve but the Jaguars have sought an experienced replacement to prepare for their upcoming Week 6 game against the Houston Texans. Jacob Bobenmoyer, 29, is already traveling to London to join the team, having entered the NFL in 2020 after going undrafted. He has appeared in 97 NFL games, playing for the Denver Broncos and Las Vegas Raiders before signing with the Jaguars.
