Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Devin Lloyd (33) runs on the field before an NFL football matchup Sunday, Dec. 15, 2024 at EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville, Fla. [Corey Perrine/Florida Times-Union] The Jacksonville Jaguars are declining the fifth-year option for linebacker Devin Lloyd, ESPN reported Wednesday.
Lloyd, 26, would have been due a guaranteed $14.571 million in 2026 had the Jaguars picked up his option.
Instead, the 27th pick in the 2022 NFL Draft will hit the free agent market after the 2025 season.
Lloyd has recorded 355 tackles, four interceptions, four fumble recoveries and two sacks in 48 games (46 starts).
He led the Jaguars in tackles in 2024 (113) and was second on the team in 2023 (127) and third in 2022 (115).
NFL teams have until Thursday to exercise the fifth-year options for 2022 first-round draft selections.

Three reasons why Inter can beat Barcelona and advance to the Champions League final
Getty Images BARCELONA -- If Inter wanted to have a chance to qualify for their second UEFA Champions League final in the last three seasons, they needed to contain FC Barcelona and Spanish wonderkid Lamine Yamal in the first leg at the Estadio Lluis Companys. If the second one was quite difficult to make happen, we can't say the Nerazzurri haven't done their best to bring a 3-3 draw back to Milan ahead of the second leg semifinal that will take place on Tuesday (live on Paramount+). Simone Inzaghi's Inter showed, once again, why they shouldn't be underestimated and why they are still a strong candidate to win, despite a disappointing recent form that led them to lose the lead of the Serie A standings after losing two Serie A matches in a row. It won't be easy, but Inter […]

Lamine The Dream: Micah Richards coins nickname for Barcelona phenom Lamine Yamal after dazzling in UCL
Getty Images Where were you when you were 17? For Lamine Yamal, he's in the process of rewriting history with every kick of the ball. Scoring against Inter and also pushing Barcelona forward in a 3-3 draw in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals, what Yamal is doing is unheard of. Tuesday was his 100th appearance for Barcelona, and in that time, he has 50 goal contributions for the club (22 goals, 28 assists). Any player would be happy to do that, but he's doing it in braces before turning 18.It's truly remarkable, and while Yamal has us running out of words on how to describe his play, one thing that he doesn't have is a nickname, but that could be changing after CBS Sports' Micah Richards coined "Lamine The Dream" during the UEFA Champions League Today post-match […]
Those who believed in Astros prospect AJ Blubaugh relish his big league debut
HOUSTON — Belief brought AJ Blubaugh to the pinnacle of his profession, a place few presumed he’d ever reach. Those who did gathered on the backstop before the biggest day of Blubaugh’s life, swapping stories of how a “sidearm knuckleballer who played shortstop” found himself as a spot starter for the Houston Astros.Advertisement“We probably talk too much,” Drew Pearson said on Wednesday morning. “I probably bug him too much. We text all the time. Phone calls. We had that bond from the beginning, so I feel comfortable with it.”Blubaugh phoned Pearson around 11:30 on Monday night to tell him of his promotion. Astros amateur scouting director Cam Pendino followed, congratulating Pearson on the first major leaguer of his scouting career.Few members of a baseball organization relish a major-league debut more than the player’s signing scout.
