Jaguars release Hurns, Lewis
The Jacksonville Jaguars continue to overhaul their offense.
The team released career Jaguars Allen Hurns and Marcedes Lewis on Tuesday.
Jacksonville moves forward without Hurns and fellow receiver Allen Robinson just three seasons after they each eclipsed 1,000 yards receiving. Robinson was allowed to hit free agency this year and signed with the Chicago Bears.
Hurns signed a four-year, $40.6-million deal with Jacksonville in summer 2016, but he has since been hampered by injuries, recording just 484 yards and two touchdowns in 2017.
Lewis has spent his entire 12-year career with the Jags. He's averaged 20 catches over the last five seasons.
The Jaguars won the AFC South this past season, and Marqise Lee and Keelan Cole led the receiving corps with more than 700 yards and three touchdowns each. This offseason, the team re-signed Lee and added Donte Moncrief and tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins.
Hurns' market should be strong given the lackluster list of available receivers and the fact that he's proven to be explosive when healthy.
