We have a plot twist to Jake Bobo’s future with the Seattle Seahawks.
ESPN’s Field Yates reported on Friday that the Jacksonville Jaguars have signed Bobo to an offer sheet, as is their right given he’s a tendered restricted free agent. If the Seahawks do not match the offer within five days, Bobo will exit for the AFC South champions.
Albert Breer has since reported the contract details, which includes $4.5 million guaranteed and an average of $2.75 million per year for two seasons. Adding in incentives would bring the total to $7 million if he hits those numbers.
Those incentives effectively indicate the Jaguars would at least entice Bobo into the idea that he’d get more playing time and targets in their offense than Seattle’s. He’s never even had more than 25 targets with the Seahawks, and it’s highly unlikely he’d get that in 2026.

Bobo was given a right of first refusal tender, valued at $3.51 million on a one-year deal. Unlike first- and second-round tenders in which unmatched offer sheets result in draft compensation, there is no draft pick attached to the tender Bobo received. As an undrafted free agent with limited playing time—despite his popularity among fan—there was zero chance he would’ve ever gotten a first- or second-round tender.
The Seahawks are now on the clock as far as whether or not there will suddenly be no more Bobo in Seattle.
