The Jacksonville Jaguars added veteran Terrelle Pryor to their inexperienced receivers group Monday.

Pryor, who turns 30 later this month, has caught 115 passes for 1,563 yards and seven touchdowns since originally entering the league as an Oakland Raiders quarterback in 2011.

Most of that production came with the Cleveland Browns in 2016, when the former Ohio State star tallied 77 receptions for 1,007 yards and four touchdowns.

In the two seasons after that breakout year, Pryor caught only 36 balls for 492 yards and three TDs in 17 games with the Washington Redskins, New York Jets and Buffalo Bills.

Pryor’s numbers, although modest, make him one of Jacksonville’s most experienced receivers. The only wideout on the 2019 roster with more career catches is Marqise Lee — who missed all of 2018 with a knee injury — with 171 since 2014.

Terms of Pryor’s deal were not disclosed. In a corresponding move, the Jaguars released second-year defensive lineman Lyndon Johnson.
