The former Wildcats center started at both right guard and center, his final season in college at the center position, so he offers some versatility on the inside of the offensive line.
The Jaguars need some work on their offensive line, despite the fact they they re-signed Cam Robinson after applying the franchise tag and signing Brandon Scherff in free agency, as the team lost long time center Brandon Linder to retirement. Adding someone like Fortner gives the Jaguars instant competition for the starter at the center position.
