The Jacksonville Jaguars have released Zay Jones, less than a week after drafting a wide receiver in the first round of the NFL Draft.

The Jaguars save $4.49 million against the salary cap by releasing Jones, who signed a three-year contract in March 2022. Jacksonville also released kicker Joey Slye.

The Jaguars drafted LSU receiver Brian Thomas, Jr. with the 23rd overall pick Thursday.
