Davon House to Sign with Jaguars: Latest Contract Details, Comments and Reaction

The Jacksonville Jaguars are taking advantage of all of that salary-cap space, as they are reportedly set to sign cornerback Davon House on a four-year contract.

The NFL Network's Ian Rapoport initially reported the deal, and Rand Getlin of Yahoo Sports added that House's contract with the Jaguars will be for four years.

The 25-year-old House spent the first four years of his career playing with the Green Bay Packers. He was a fourth-round pick out of New Mexico State in 2011, appearing in 40 games with 14 starts. 

Given House's lack of starting experience, the money Jacksonville is paying him is raising some eyebrows.  

Pro Football Talk's Michael David Smith noted on Twitter that House didn't play a lot of snaps for the Packers:

It is a steep price to pay for a part-time player, but the Jaguars are still trying to build a roster and have to pay more than a normal team in some instances to sign free agents.   

Plus, there's also the possibility that Jaguars head coach Gus Bradley sees something in House that convinced him this is a cornerback who can play a bigger role than he had been given.
