Ronald Darby: To be released by Jacksonville
Ronald Darby is slated to be released by the Jaguars, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.The veteran cornerback played in 13 games, started 12 and recorded 46 tackles (36 solo) and nine pass breakups in his first season in Jacksonville. Darby did sign a two-year, $8.5-million deal last March, but the Jaguars' secondary also struggled in 2024, making it likely that the team will seek help this offseason.
