Dan Skuta: Released by Jaguars

Skuta was released by the Jaguars on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Skuta spent the past two seasons in Jacksonville but dealt with a string of injuries last year that limited his productivity, as he only managed to record 18 tackles and one pass deflection through 13 games in 2016. The drop-off in performance was enough for the Jaguars to sever ties with the once-starting outside linebacker, who was slated to make $12.3 million over the next three seasons.
