DaVon Hamilton signs extension with Jacksonville Jaguars

We have some former Ohio State football news to report.

Former Buckeye and current Jacksonville Jaguars defensive lineman DaVon Hamilton has reportedly signed a three-year extension. The news was first reported by NFL Network’s Ian Rapaport and is reported to be worth $34.5 million, with $23 million of it fully guaranteed. A whopping $18.7 million of it will be paid out in year one.

It is well earned for Hamilton who is coming off of a career year. He started 14 of the 17 games he appeared in, and racked up 56 total tackles, five tackles for loss, with 2.5 of them going for sacks. He has spent his entire three-year career with Jacksonville after the Jags drafted him as the No. 73 picks in the third round of the 2020 NFL draft.
