The Jaguars brought running back Jake Funk back to their practice squad on Wednesday after releasing him from the unit on Tuesday, Jacksonville announced.
Funk was let go in a trio of roster moves Jacksonville completed Tuesday afternoon, alongside offensive lineman Blake Hance being signed to the Jaguars’ active roster and wide receiver Velus Jones Jr. joining the practice squad.
The transactions were soon followed by Jacksonville trading former starting left tackle Cam Robinson and a conditional 2026 seventh-round NFL draft pick to the Minnesota Vikings for a conditional 2024 fifth-round pick.
Funk originally signed to Jacksonville’s practice squad on Oct. 1 and was elevated to the active roster for Week 7 against the New England Patriots and Week 8 against the Green Bay Packers. He did not appear in either game.
A seventh-round draft pick by the Los Angeles Rams in 2021, Funk has also played for New Orleans, Indianapolis, Miami, Baltimore and Detroit. He has rushed four times for 15 yards, caught one pass for 12 yards and returned four kickoffs for 22 yards on average in 20 career appearances.
