Jacksonville Jaguars salary cap breakdown along the offensive line
In an effort to reshape the offensive line unit last offseason, the Jaguars invested into this unit, signing Robert Hainsey and Patrick Mekari in free agency. Mekari has the 10th-largest cap hit on the team at $7.35 million, while Hainsey ranks 15th at $4.52 million for the 2026 season.
Then already on the books were Walker Little and Ezra Cleveland's deals. Little has a cap hit of $14.49 million and is likely to be a backup this season. Cleveland's is $11.42 million.
Jacksonville then extended Cole Van Lanen late in the year. He carries a cap hit of $5.185 million.
Of the 15 largest salary cap hits on the Jaguars' roster, five belong to offensive linemen. Anton Harrison isn't far behind with a cap hit of $4.199 million. He is still on his rookie deal, however, and is currently set to play in 2027 on a fifth-year option, which comes with a much larger cap hit.
Wyatt Milum, Emmanuel Pregnon, and Jonah Monheim are on rookie deals as well. The other linemen on the roster are on league-minimum contracts.
