Jaguars sign Dare Ogunbowale to add backfield depth
The Jacksonville Jaguars have agreed to terms with running back Dare Ogunbowale, according to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network.
What It Means:
Ogunbowale spent the last two seasons of his career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but he was released this past week with the addition of Leonard Fournette to the backfield. Now he'll change conferences but remain in the same state, as he's joining the Jaguars - who just so happen to be Fournette's old team. With Ryquell Armstead on the reserve/COVID-19 list, they could use some depth, so expect Ogunbowale to be a special teams contributor and potentially aid Chris Thompson, James Robinson and Devine Ozigbo in the backfield.
In 16 games last season, Ogunbowale had 11 carries for 17 yards and two touchdowns with 35 catches for 286 yards.
