The Jacksonville Jaguars play one regular-season game in London, England every year, so it was only appropriate that the team sent defensive lineman Mike Bennett to the UK to announce the team's fifth-round selection in the NFL Draft Saturday.

Bennett was set to announce the Jaguars' pick with a contest winner, Hamish Shilliday.

Safe travels to @Jaguars DT @mike96bennett as he travels to London tonight to announce team's 5th-rd selection w/ @JaguarsUK winner, Hamish.

Only the Jaguars no longer have a fifth-round pick — they traded it to Baltimore in order to move up in the second round to select Myles Jack.

Bennett had fun with it. Adding Jack to the defense softens the blow.
