Jaguars Yannick Ngakoue focused on playing football, not contract talk

Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Yannick Ngakoue told the media on Tuesday afternoon after the team completed its first day of OTAs, he is here to play football.

With discussion in media circles centering around whether or not the fourth-year player should be on the practice field for something that is considered voluntary, Ngakoue, who has 29.5 sacks in the previous three seasons here in Jacksonville, shrugged off questions about his potential contract negotiations and concentrated on the football side of things.

Everything else will be left to those who handle the business side of football.
