Jacksonville Jaguars sign former Oakland Raiders tight end Mychal Rivera

On Wednesday, March 22nd 2017 Mychal Rivera signed a deal that could be worth as much as $6.75 million over the next two years.

Mychal Rivera could be an under the radar signing that pays huge dividends for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Rivera who is listed at 6’3″ and 245 pounds could be the receiving tight end the Jags are looking for.

Although he played the for Oakland Raiders since his rookie year in 2013, Rivera was never given much of an opportunity to be a receiving threat in an offense that does not utilize tight ends as much as many other NFL teams.
