The Facts: The Jaguars officially placed their franchise tag today on Engram, per source. What was expected now is official.
Diehards Line:
Engram is in line for a $11.345 million salary under the terms of the tag and the two sides would have until July 15 to work out a long-term deal. Engram signed a one-year deal with the Jaguars as a free agent last year. He set personal bests with 73 catches and 766 yards while helping the Jags to the divisional round of the playoffs. Assuming Engram returns, the Jaguars will have their top three receivers back as wideouts Christian Kirk and Zay Jones remain in the fold. They will also have Calvin Ridley, who was officially reinstated from suspension earlier today.
