Jaguars Trade Defensive Tackle Roy Robertson-Harris to Seahawks
In a significant move during the NFL regular season, the Jacksonville Jaguars have agreed to trade defensive tackle Roy Robertson-Harris to the Seattle Seahawks. According to sources, including Mike Garafolo and Tom Pelissero, the trade involves the Jaguars sending Robertson-Harris to the Seahawks in exchange for a 2026 late-round draft pick.
Roy Robertson-Harris was with the Jaguars in London when he received the news of the trade. He will now embark on a 10-hour flight to Seattle to prepare for the Seahawks’ upcoming game against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
This trade marks the first significant player transaction of the NFL regular season and reflects the ongoing roster adjustments teams are making to strengthen their positions. For the Seahawks, acquiring Robertson-Harris adds depth and experience to their defensive line, while the Jaguars gain a future draft pick to potentially bolster their roster in the coming years.
Roy Robertson-Harris is set to become a free agent in the near future, and this move could be part of the Jaguars’ broader strategy to refresh their defensive line. The team has already started a youth movement by drafting players like Maason Smith and Jordan Jefferson, indicating a focus on rebuilding and rejuvenating their defensive unit.
