Mike Florio and Myles Simmons assess where else the Jags could potentially play for two years while their stadium is under renovation, and if this is an opportunity to play internationally.

Before the full schedule gets released this evening, the Jaguars have taken care of some rookie business on Thursday.

Jacksonville has signed fifth-round pick Yasir Abdullah, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Abdullah was the No. 136 overall pick for the Jaguars out of Louisville.

He played five seasons for the Cardinals, becoming a second-team All-ACC honoree in 2021 and a first-team All-ACC honoree in 2022. He had 23.5 sacks, 42.0 tackles for loss, and three interceptions in his college career.

The Jaguars chose 13 players in the 2023 draft, including first-round pick Anton Harrison out of Oklahoma.
