The Jacksonville Jaguars hosted defensive back Carthell Flowers-Lloyd and linebacker Gary Johnson Jr. for workouts Friday.
Flowers-Lloyd, 25, played for the Canadian Football League’s Hamilton Tiger-Cats during the 2023 season and recorded 31 tackles. Prior to his professional career, Flowers-Lloyd played at Eastern Michigan before transferring and finishing his collegiate career at Stony Brook.
Johnson, 27, is a CFL veteran who played three seasons with the Saskatchewan Roughriders before joining the Ottawa Redblacks for the 2023 season. In 22 games over four seasons, he’s recorded 33 tackles, one sack, and one forced fumble.
As a linebacker with the Texas Longhorns, Johnson recorded 150 tackles, 22.5 tackles for loss, 8.5 sacks, and three forced fumbles in 26 career games. He briefly spent time with Washington in 2019, joining the team as an undrafted free agent during training camp.
Both Flowers-Lloyd and Johnson have starred on special teams in the CFL. The Jaguars previously mined the CFL’s talent pool and signed quarterback Nathan Rourke, who has spent the majority of the 2023 season on the practice squad.
