The Jaguars signed Perry to their practice squad Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Brown product has spent the majority of his career on Jacksonville's practice squad since entering the league in 2022, and he'll remain there ahead of the 2024 season. Perry has yet to appear in an NFL game, and he could be in line to serve as the Jaguars' No. 3 QB behind Trevor Lawrence and Mac Jones.

Perry was waived by the Jaguars on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Perry joined the team last Wednesday as an extra body while C.J. Beathard was dealing with a groin injury. The 26-year-old was unable to turn that limited time into a greater opportunity, but he has been a member of Jacksonville's practice squad in the past and could see that opportunity arrive again.

Perry signed a contract with the Jaguars on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Perry's addition comes as C.J. Beathard is sidelined due to a groin injury and is not expected to play in Friday's preseason finale against the Falcons. The former has spent time in the organization as recently as last season, and should be able to provide reps in practice and is an option to suit up in Friday's game.

Perry signed with the Jaguars' practice squad Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Perry will bolster the organizational depth at quarterback with Trevor Lawrence currently in concussion protocols. The former spent the entirety of the 2022 season on Jacksonville's practice squad, so he should be a natural fit to do so with his familiarity with the team and its offense.

EDGE Analysis
Perry was waived by the Jaguars on Tuesday and finds a new home in the AFC South, where he'll try to push for a 53-man roster spot this summer, assuming he even makes it to camp with the Texans. Perry has never attempted an NFL pass.

QB FA
Perry was waived by the Jaguars on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Perry spent the entirety of the past season on the Jaguars' practice squad and was not elevated for a single game. Despite signing a reserve/future contract back in January, the 2022 undrafted free agent's release should not come as a big surprise as he was buried on the depth chart behind Trevor Lawrence, C.J. Beathard, and Nathan Rourke. Perry will now test the open market and will hope to find a better opportunity elsewhere.
