Jaguars Call Up Two Players For Thursday Night Football

Ledbetter, 28, is a former sixth-round pick by the Lions out of Arkansas in the 2017 NFL Draft. He was entering the second year of his four-year, $2.5 million rookie contract when he was waived coming out of the 2018 preseason.

Ledbetter signed on with the Buccaneers’ practice squad shortly after clearing waivers unclaimed. After a brief stint on the Ravens’ practice squad, he returned to Tampa Bay before joining the Jaguars this year. 

For his career, Ledbetter has appeared in 20 games and recorded 18 total tackles and 1.5 sacks.
