Jaguars' Sam Ficken: Latches on with Jags for training camp

Ficken has signed a contract with the Jaguars, the Florida Times-Union reports.

Analysis:

Ficken went undrafted after an up-and-down career at Penn State and hadn't signed with a team until joining the Jaguars. Now, Ficken is positioned to compete with incumbent Jason Myers for kicking duties in Jacksonville. Myers was inconsistent in his first season as the team's kicker in 2015, converting 26 of 30 attempts while also missing a league-high seven extra point attempts. The winner of this training camp battle could hold fantasy relevance in 2015 as the starting kicker in an ascending Jaguars offensive attack.
