Jaguars Sign P Logan Cooke to Four-Year Extension

The Jacksonville Jaguars have signed punter Logan Cooke to a four-year, $12 million contract extension, ensuring continuity in their special teams unit under the new regime. Cooke, a seventh-round pick in 2018 and the team's longest-tenured player, earned his first Pro Bowl nod and a Second-Team All-Pro selection in 2024 after posting career highs including a net punting average of 44.8 yards, the highest career mark in NFL history since 1976. He also set franchise records with a gross punting average of 47.4 yards and a 41.8% rate of punts inside the 20-yard line. Cooke's consistency and elite performance have made him a core contributor, with the Jaguars valuing his reliability as they retain other special teams standouts like Ross Matiscik and Cam Little. The extension was announced ahead of the team's mandatory minicamp, reflecting the Jaguars' commitment to maintaining strength in special teams despite broader organizational changes. This deal mirrors recent market trends seen with other punters such as the Raiders' A.J. Cole, reinforcing Cooke's status as one of the league's top specialists.
