The Jacksonville Jaguars agreed to a three-year, $28.5-million contract with offensive lineman Ezra Cleveland, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Cleveland is guaranteed $14.5 million in the deal, Rapoport adds.

The contract keeps the guard from testing free agency next week. Jacksonville acquired Cleveland from the Minnesota Vikings in a midseason trade last year.

He appeared in nine games for the Jaguars, including five starts.

Jacksonville began its offseason by releasing key veterans such as defensive tackle Foley Fatukasi, safety Rayshawn Jenkins, and cornerback Darious Williams. The Jaguars also placed the franchise tag on star pass-rusher Josh Allen.
