The Jaguars made six practice squad moves Tuesday, signing quarterback John Wolford, punter Matt Haack and long snapper Tucker Addington and releasing offensive lineman Jerome Carvin, defensive end Joe Gaziano and cornerback Tyler Hall from the unit,Zach Goodall of Jaguars Wire reports.

Wolford, who starred at Bishop Kenny High School in Jacksonville from 2010-14, once held the state of Florida’s all-time high school passing records for yards (10,621) and touchdowns (126). He went on to throw for 8,794 yards with 59 touchdowns and 41 interceptions in four seasons at Wake Forest.

An undrafted free agent in 2018, Wolford originally signed with the New York Jets but was released before the regular season began.

Wolford was drafted by the Arizona Hotshots of the Alliance of American Football that November and threw for 1,617 yards, 14 touchdowns and seven interceptions in eight games during the AAF’s lone season.

Wolford re-entered the NFL after the AAF suspended operations in April 2019, signing with the Los Angeles Rams, where he spent four seasons backing up quarterbacks Jared Goff and Matthew Stafford. He completed 61-of-104 passes for 626 yards with one touchdown and five interceptions over seven games and four starts.

Wolford signed with Tampa Bay’s practice squad before the 2023 season and joined the Buccaneers active roster last November. He re-signed with the Buccaneers this offseason but was released in August.

Haack joins the Jaguars as an insurance plan for starting punter Logan Cooke, who, according to head coach Doug Pederson, was dealing with soreness in his left knee after Jacksonville’s 23-20 loss to the Houston Texans on Sunday.
