Free-agent quarterback Blake Bortles is reportedly set to visit the Los Angeles Rams on Monday, a source told NFL Network's Michael Silver.

The Jacksonville Jaguars released Bortles on Wednesday after they acquired Nick Foles the previous day.

Los Angeles may be looking for someone to play behind Jared Goff as last season's backup, Sean Mannion, entered free agency this week.

Bortles, the No. 3 pick in the 2014 draft, spent all five years of his career with Jacksonville.

After competing in the AFC title game in 2017, he wasn't able to repeat the same success in 2018, accumulating a 3-9 record when starting for the Jaguars in 2018. He threw for 2718 yards, 13 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions in 13 games.
