Overview
- The Jaguars announced Tuesday that veteran interior lineman Trystan Colon was placed on the reserve/retired list, which removes him from the active roster but lets the team keep his rights if he returns.
- Colon signed with Jacksonville on June 4 and was participating in training camp as recently as July 30 before filing retirement papers.
- Over six NFL seasons Colon appeared in about 63 games, played center and both guard positions, started multiple games for Arizona and Detroit, and earned roughly $6.7 million in career pay.
- His sudden departure removes an experienced backup option behind starter Robert Hainsey and tightens competition for the Jaguars’ backup center and guard roles.
- The team gave no public reason for the move and named no immediate replacement, leaving Jacksonville to decide whether to add a free agent or promote a player from camp as it evaluates depth and injuries.
