Jaguars sign rookie CB Colvin to 4-year contract
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) The Jacksonville Jaguars have signed cornerback Aaron Colvin, a fourth-round draft pick from Oklahoma, to a four-year contract.
Colvin's deal is worth about $2.67 million and includes a $453,000 signing bonus.
The 6-foot, 186-pound Colvin is the third of the team's nine draft picks to sign in the last three days, joining center Luke Bowanko and running back Storm Johnson.
Colvin is recovering from a torn knee ligament sustained during practice for the Senior Bowl. He will start the season on the physically unable to perform list and miss at least the first six games.
He started 36 of 50 games in four seasons at Oklahoma, finishing with 234 tackles, 23 pass breakups, five interceptions and 3 1/2 sacks.
