14 Terry Godwin WR

Godwin inked a contract with the Jaguars on Thursday.

Godwin spent much of the 2019 season on the Jaguars' practice squad and earned another shot. Originally a seventh-round pick by Carolina in 2019, Godwin racked up 133 catches for 1,788 yards in his career at Georgia. He'll likely be battling for a spot on the active roster in 2020 during training camp.

Godwin (undisclosed) had his practice squad contract with the Jaguars expire Monday, freelance NFL writer Howard Balzer reports.

Godwin spent the entire season on the Jaguars' practice squad, but he moved to the practice squad injured list in mid-December. The 23-year-old was selected in the seventh round during April's draft by the Panthers but was unable to crack the season-opening roster.

The Jaguars placed Godwin on the practice squad injured list Thursday.

The nature and severity of Godwin's injury remain undisclosed. The rookie seventh-round pick was a five-star recruit out of high school, and he could get a chance to compete for a depth role in the offseason if healthy.

Godwin got scooped up by the Jaguars' practice squad Tuesday.

Godwin went to the Panthers in the seventh round of the 2019 NFL Draft but was recently waived during final roster cuts. The Jaguars must have seen something they liked with the young pass catcher, as they have opted to bring him into their practice unit.

Godwin was cut by the Panthers on Saturday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

Selected in the seventh round of the 2019 NFL Draft, Godwin was competing for a role as a return man and depth receiver with the Panthers. A five-star recruit out of high school, Godwin will search for a similar chance elsewhere in the league.

The Panthers selected Godwin in the seventh round of the 2019 NFL Draft, 237th overall.

The Georgia wideout was a five-star recruit out of high school who recorded 133 catches for 1,788 yards and 11 touchdowns during his four years in Athens. Godwin's strengths are his quickness off the line and his route running, which he'll need as a future slot receiver in the NFL. If things break his way, Godwin could move up to WR6 on the Panthers depth chart this season.
