The Jaguars have added veteran safety Pierson Prioleau to their secondary, according to the Associated Press. In order to make room for the safety on Wednesday the team also waived quarterback Lester Richard. Prioleau is entering his tenth NFL season.

The Jaguars are reportedly interested in making a deal for Eagles cornerback Lito Sheppard, according to the Philadelphia Daily News. The Eagles will hold their first postdraft minicamp this weekend, and Philadelphia could look to make a deal involving Sheppard before the workouts take place. Asked whether he expects Sheppard to play for the Eagles in '08, coach Andy Reid said: "As I sit here right now, Lito is an Eagle. That's how it is, just like every other guy on this football team." "It gives us one great opportunity for a nice secondary. The way to use him is just like we used [former Eagles cornerbacks] Bobby Taylor, Al Harris and Troy Vincent. We just rotated all of them and they were all starters in our eyes," Reid added.

QB David Garrard has signed a contract extension with the Jaguars, according to an Associated Press report. Terms of Monday?s deal were not released. But Garrard and his agent, Albert Irby, had been looking for something similar to the six-year, $67.5M contract Cowboys QB Tony Romo signed last season.

With Head Coach Jack Del Rio signed to an extension, the Jaguars have shifted their focus to quarterback David Garrard, according to Jaguars.com. Team owner Wayne Weaver told reporters at the press conference to announce Del Rio's deal on Thursday that Garrard was next in line. "I think you can expect something on the quarterback. I think it'll be sooner than later," Weaver said.

Del Rio?s length of contract and salary were not disclosed by the team Thursday, but the salary was expected to be a significant jump from the original five-year, $6.5M contract he signed in 2003.
