93 Calais Campbell DE

The Jaguars exercised Campbell's contract option for 2019 on Monday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio reports.

Campbell led Jacksonville in sacks (10.5) during the 2018 season,and also racked up 72 tackles (53 solo) and one forced fumble across 16 games. The 32-year-old is one of the Jaguars' most reliable defensive players and a team captain. Now having put together consecutive Pro Bowl seasons, Campbell will work to extend that streak into 2019.

Campbell had seven tackles (five solo) and 1.5 sacks in Sunday's loss to the Texans.

Campbell finished 2018 as the Jaguars leader in the sack column (10.5) and had 72 tackles (53 solo) and one forced fumble. The 32-year-old represents the heart and soul of Jacksonville's defensive front, and has been its sack leader in both his years with the team. The Jaguars could be rid of Campbell's $14.5 million cap hit for 2019 with only $3 million in dead cap, per Spotrac, but given his level of play and continued leadership role, the team seems more likely to free up money elsewhere.

Campbell had three solo tackles, a sack, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in Sunday's win over the Dolphins.

Campbell was able to strip RB Brandon Bolden and recover the loose ball in the third quarter, but Bolden was initially ruled down by contact until the play was challenged and the ruling reversed. The 32-year-old has nine sacks entering the final week of the regular season and could reach double digits for the second time in his career in Week 17 against the Texans.

Campbell had seven tackles (six solo) and a sack in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Redskins.

Campbell had two tackles for loss and three quarterback hits in one of his more active games of the season, as he tied for the team lead in tackles. The 32-year-old played 52 of 68 defensive snaps and should continue in his usual starting role at defensive end next week against the Dolphins.

Campbell had two solo tackles and a sack in Sunday's 6-0 win against the Colts.

Campbell also added a pass defensed and remains tied for the team lead in sacks at seven with Yannick Ngakoue. Campbell has been limited at practice this week with an ankle injury, but he was similarly limited last week yet was able to play his usual snap share in Sunday's game. The 32-year-old appears on track to be available for Thursday's game at Tennessee.
