Jaguars' Mychal Rivera: Inks deal with Jaguars

The Jaguars and Rivera agreed to a contract Wednesday, the team's official site reports.

Analysis:

Rivera visited some TE-needy teams this offseason (the Jets and Colts) but ultimately settled on the Jaguars, who currently roster six other players at the position. Helping his cause for playing time, though, is his stature as an H-back, from which he hauled in 146 of 230 passes for 1,413 yards and 10 touchdowns during his four seasons with the Raiders. Depending on how the Jaguars emerge from this year's draft, Rivera's primary competitor for work at the moment is a long-time Jag, Marcedes Lewis (calf).
