Shaquill Griffin News
Free-agent cornerback Shaquill Griffin agreed to a one-year contract with the Texans on Saturday. The deal will pay him $3.5 million, with $3 million guaranteed. The Jaguars released the 27-year-old in March after appearing in only five games last season because of hip and back injuries. However, he's medically cleared to play. In Griffin's six seasons of service, he's totaled 327 tackles (261 solo), six picks, and one sack, so he should be a reliable member of the Texans defense as long as he remains on the field.
The Jacksonville Jaguars officially released cornerback Shaquill Griffin on Wednesday, according to sources. Griffin, who is only 27 years old, should attract plenty of attention as one of the best cornerbacks on the free-agent market this offseason. He played in just five games in 2022 due to back and hip injuries, but Griffin has been fully cleared medically. Griffin made the Pro Bowl in 2019 with the Seattle Seahawks and had 49 tackles (36 solo), seven passes defensed and one forced fumble in 14 starts in his first season with Jacksonville in 2021. The former third-round pick by Seattle in 2017 has 262 solo tackles, 12 tackles for loss, one sack, six interceptions and 59 passes defensed in his six NFL campaigns to this point.
The Jacksonville Jaguars are expected to release or attempt to trade cornerback Shaquill Griffin in the coming days, according to sources. Cutting him would save $13.1 million in salary cap space in 2023. Griffin is still just 27 years old and is a former Pro Bowler, so he figures to be a key player in this year's cornerback market if he becomes a free agent. He was a Pro Bowler in 2019 with the Seattle Seahawks, but he played in just five games last year due to back and hip injuries in his second year in Jacksonville. Griffin isn't really on the fantasy map in IDP leagues, but he remains a solid cover corner and should find a new home pretty quickly if he's not traded soon. In 14 starts in 2021, he had 49 tackles (36 solo), seven passes defensed and a forced fumble for the Jaguars.
