The Jacksonville Jaguars, with their sleeves still rolled up post-draft, picked up former Memphis Tigers star Seth Henigan to beef up their quarterback roster, a decision that comes with its own blend of upside and question marks. Henigan, who wasn’t scooped up during the 2025 NFL Draft, has now anchored his NFL dreams by signing on as an undrafted free agent, WREG reports.
After playing a four-year bout with the Tigers as their starting quarterback, Henigan has shouldered a fair share of their history, securing a place as the program’s leading man in passing yards and touchdowns - let's not gloss over the fact he spearheaded three consecutive bowl victories, a stat you might find wedged in a Commercial Appeal article discussing the upsides and potential areas for improvement this undrafted signee brings to the Jaguars.
There's talk of Henigan's game oozing with consistent performance and an enviable football IQ, not to mention his standing as a Texas high school state champion, though his physicality doesn't quite hit the mark of 'elite athlete' and there's a consensus that pocket awareness could use some tweaking, according to the Commercial Appeal.
Jaguars' management seems to be game for rolling the dice on undrafted talent like Henigan, turning their gaze towards the kind of roster competition that could unearth the next big thing - and with previous undrafted victories like Corey Grant and James Robinson, they've got reason to bet on the long shots, as per Jacksonville Jaguars
With the indefatigable wheeling and dealing of the Jaguars management, the 90-man roster is shaping up to be an interesting hodgepodge of seasoned draftees and under-the-radar undrafted free agents, where every handshake and signed contract could mean a shift in the gridiron dynamics for the upcoming season; it's a gamble, but one the franchise seems all too willing to make.
