Free agent center Mitch Morse agreed to a two-year deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars worth $10.5 million with $7 million guaranteed, NFL Network reported Monday.

Morse, 31, was released by the Bills in a salary cap move last week, which made him eligible to sign before the official start of free agency.

A Pro Bowl selection in 2022, Morse entered the NFL in 2015 as a second-round pick of the Kansas City Chiefs, where current Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson was offensive coordinator.

A captain in Buffalo, Morse is expected to replace Luke Fortner in Jacksonville. Fortner was 32nd in the NFL in pass protection grades among the league's 32 starting centers in 2023 based on Pro Football Focus analytics.

Morse has played in 126 career regular-season games.
