Branden Albert: Released by Jaguars
Albert has officially been released by the Jaguars, Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reports.
After abruptly announcing his retirement from football nearly two weeks ago, Albert recently had a change of heart. However, the Jaguars already had placed him on the "reserve/retired" list, which would have made a move back to the active roster somewhat complicated. Thus, they have opted to simply release the veteran.

Branden Albert: May return to Jaguars
Albert has informed the Jaguars that he's interested in returning to the team, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Albert abruptly announced his retirement from football less than two weeks ago, but it appears that may have been a rash decision, and one that he seemingly regrets. While the process of moving Albert back to the active roster may be a complicated one, the Jaguars placed him on the "reserve/retired" list Tuesday after Albert was previously listed on the "left team" list. In the event that Albert ultimately rejoins the team, he'll compete with rookie Cam Robinson for snaps at either tackle or guard.

Branden Albert: Announces retirement
Albert announced Monday that he would retire from the NFL, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.
Albert's decision to hang up his cleats comes as a major surprise, as the 32-year-old was just acquired from the Dolphins in the offseason and expected to serve as the Jaguars' starting left tackle. The sudden departure of the two-time Pro Bowler, who was on the field for the Jaguars' initial days of training camp, will force Jacksonville to look elsewhere to protect quarterback Blake Bortles' blind side. Rookie second-rounder Cam Robinson seems the most likely candidate to fill Albert's spot, but his promotion to that role would come far earlier than was expected when he was drafted.

Jaguars' Branden Albert: Still seeking new contract
Albert is not expected to participate in Tuesday's OTAs as he continues to wait for an improved contract, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.
Albert, who was traded from the Dolphins to the Jaguars in February, isn't happy with his contract situation in Jacksonville. He'll be expected to start at left tackle upon his eventual return, but that time may not come until he's able to work out a deal with the front office. In the meantime, rookie tackle Cam Robinson out of Alabama figures to see additional reps with the first team.
