Officially agreeing to terms with the Jaguars on March 19th, former Cleveland Browns linebacker Joe Schobert laid out the decision making process of officially becoming the new middle linebacker of the Jaguars.
In speaking with Jake Kocorowski of SI’s AllBadgers, Schobert stated the decision on where he was going to plant his flag was difficult, and ultimately, it came down to the Cincinnati Bengals and the Jaguars. Five or six teams were vying for the linebackers services.
“The Jaguars and the Bengals were the ones who really wanted me to come over there and willing to out pay the other teams,” Schobert told Kocorowski.
