Jaguars waive four, release one to reduce roster to 80

Yesterday, the Jaguars made several roster moves to bring their total count to 80 players, the required limit that would have been enforced for all 32 teams on Aug. 16.

In reducing the roster the Jaguars waived rookie running back Tavien Feaster, first-year offensive lineman Tyler Gauthier, rookie offensive lineman Steven Nielsen and rookie K Brandon Wright, and released third-year safety Doug Middleton.

Feaster, Nielsen and Wright were signed as undrafted free agents shortly after this year’s draft. Gauthier and Middleton signed with the team last season.
