Cephus joined Jacksonville as a UDFA in 2024 and played in one game as a rookie before inking a reserve/future contract for 2025. The 6-2 wideout, who caught 89 passes for 1,151 yards and 10 touchdowns during his senior season at UTSA in 2023, was placed on IR by the Jaguars in August. Read Past Outlooks

August 21, 2025
Cephus (undisclosed) reverted to injured reserve with the Jaguars on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Cephus suffered an undisclosed injury during training camp with Jacksonville, which is now set to sideline him for the 2025 campaign. He'd be eligible to sign elsewhere and play this season if he were to reach an injury settlement with the Jaguars; otherwise, he'll shift his focus to 2026.
