Recently, plenty of players have been signing their restricted free agency tenders. Now, one team has decided to go in the other direction.

The Jaguars have withdrawn the offer given previously to linebacker Clint Ingram, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Ingram recently underwent arthroscopic knee surgery. He had been offered a one-year, $1.266 million contract.

The Jaguars drafted four defensive lineman over the weekend, but no linebackers. (But, as Rosenthal has reminded me, they traded for former Raiders stalwart Kirk Morrison -- which should have prompted Ingram to immediately ink his tender.)

A four-year veteran, Ingram started 12 games in 2009. He's now free to sign with any team.

Re: LB Clint Ingram

I hear Clint is scheduled to come in and visit with the Saints soon. I think it's better than 50/50 that we sign this guy.

It makes a lot of sense as Greg Williams is very familiar with his capabilities.

Clint Ingram-LB- Jaguars Apr. 26 - 8:31 am et

The Jaguars withdrew their restricted free agent tender to LB Clint Ingram, making him an unrestricted free agent.

Ingram has started lots of games over the last four years, but was a disappointment of late. Even though he plays a different linebacker position, his job was essentially taken by Kirk Morrison over draft weekend. Look for Ingram to land with the Saints and old defensive coordinator Gregg Williams.

We already have Ayodele, Hargrove, Ellis, Woods, & Pressley under contract. With 5 DT's on the roster you can pretty much rule out Henderson. I'm sure we still have people that think we are trading Jammal Brown for Albert Haynesworth.

I think we all need to prepare ourselves for another year of 35-28 football games, where we give up 100-150 yds per game on the ground. It may not be everyone's favorite way to win a football game, but you can't say it isn't effective. We did go 13-3 and win the division, conference, and Superbowl with that style of play.

I'll agree with that. He immediately becomes our 2nd best DT, and more importantly, is a perfect fit to play beside Ellis.

The ONLY question is how much gas is left in that tank.

Does anyone still use presses?

Anyway, Gregg Williams is very familiar with Henderson, so we'll find out shortly if he's worth bringing in.
