JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- The Jacksonville Jaguars have signed cornerback Mike Holmes and waived safety Jeremiah Brown.
Holmes was originally signed as a rookie
free agent by the Chicago Bears in 2011 and was waived during final
cuts. He was signed to Indianapolis' practice squad last October and
then promoted to the 53-man roster in early December. The Colts waived
him in May.
