The Jacksonville Jaguars will reportedly be signing free agent wide receiver Terrelle Pryor, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
The #Jaguars are expected to sign veteran WR Terrelle Pryor, source said. He worked out yesterday & the team quickly offered. The deal should be done today, with Pryor getting another chance to make his mark. He spent time with Jax OC John DeFilippo when both were in Cleveland.

The former decorated Ohio State quarterback originally entered the NFL in the 2011 supplemental draft when the Oakland Raiders spent a third round pick on him. Pryor entered the NFL with the intent to play quarterback, originally backing up for the Raiders but found himself as a starter for nine games in 2013, going 3-6 completing 57 percent of his passes, throwing for nearly 1,800 yards and had 7 passing touchdowns with 11 interceptions.
Funnily enough, Pryor’s first win as a starting quarterback came against the Jaguars in Week 2 of the 2013 season.
After his stink with the Raiders, Pryor bounced around multiple teams before finally finding a home with the Cleveland Browns as a full time wide receiver. Pryor had a breakout season in 2016 with 77 receptions, over 1,000 yards receiving and four touchdowns.
Pryor since then spent time with the New York Jets, Washington and the Buffalo Bills without a ton of production and dealing with a handful of injuries.
