Jags Extend Spicer's Contract

POSTED: 4:36 pm EDT June 27, 2008

(Sports Network) - The Jacksonville Jaguars inked veteran defensive end Paul Spicer to a contract extension on Friday.

The club did not disclose the terms of the contract, but the NFL Network reported that it is a two-year extension worth $8 million.

The 32-year-old Spicer, the defensive team captain last season, led the Jags with a career-high 7.5 sacks in 2007. The 10-year veteran recorded 50 tackles (36 solo), three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.

Spicer entered the league as an undrafted rookie out of Saginaw Valley State in 1998 and spent time with Seattle and Detroit, and in the Canadian Football League before signing with the Jaguars in 2000. The 6-foot-4, 295-pounder ranks fourth in team history with 25 sacks and also has 299 tackles, six forced fumbles, and four fumble recoveries in 99 games in Jacksonville with 53 starts.
