A person with knowledge of negotiations says | Forum

JACKSONVILLE Will Richardson Jerseys 2019 , Fla. (AP) — the Jacksonville Jaguars and free-agent linebacker Jake Ryan have agreed to terms on a contract.The person spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity Sunday because the deal had not been finalized. The person says the deal is contingent on Ryan passing a physical.The 27-year-old Ryan missed all of last season after tearing the ACL in his right knee during training camp.A fourth-round draft pick by Green Bay in 2015, Ryan started 27 games for the Packers during his first three seasons. The former Michigan standout recorded 213 tackles, three pass breakups, one forced fumble and a sack in 43 games with Green Bay. He also was a core special teams player.The Jaguars have little experienced depth behind starting linebackers Myles Jack and Telvin Smith, and Ryan could end up being an upgrade over backups Donald Payne and/or Blair Brown.His pending arrival also could allow Jack the flexibility to move back outside. Jack replaced retired Paul Posluszny in the middle last year, but made more plays as an outside linebacker in 2017. Ben Roethlisberger was far from perfect until the fourth quarter Black Brandon Linder Jerseys , and that was all that mattered for the Pittsburgh Steelers.One week after Roethlisberger had a perfect quarterback rating, he overcame three interceptions and a 16-0 deficit by leading two late scoring drives. He lunged in from the 1 for the winning score with 5 seconds left for a 20-16 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.The Steelers (7-2-1) won their sixth straight and likely ended any playoff hopes for the Jaguars, who eliminated Pittsburgh in the divisional round last year.The Jaguars (3-7) dropped their sixth in a row in a game they controlled until the final five minutes.Leonard Fournette ran for 95 yards and caught two passes for 46 yards that led to the Jaguars’ only touchdown when he launched himself from the 4 and scored for a 16-0 lead with 2:09 left in the third quarter.Roethlisberger, who now has 10 turnovers in his last three games against Jacksonville, took over from there.He got safety Tashaun Gipson Sr. to bite on a pump fake and found Antonio Brown open deep in the middle of the field for a 78-yard touchdown.Still trailing by 10 points with just under six minutes remaining, Roethlisberger found tight end Vance McDonald in the back of the end zone to cut the lead to 16-13 with 2:28 remaining.Pittsburgh kicked off and the Jaguars went three-and-out Brandon Linder Jerseys 2019 , and then Roethlisberger led a 68-yard drive. He hit JuJu Smith-Schuster on the left sideline for a 35-yard gain to the 27 that at least got the Steelers in field goal position.James Conner, throttled in the running game, dropped a sure touchdown when he got behind linebacker Telvin Smith Sr., turning his eyes to goal line as the ball bounced off his hands. No matter. Roethlisberger hit Brown over the middle to the 2, and after a pair of penalties, Roethlisberger rolled to his right and surged across the line on a 1-yard score that was upheld on review.Roethlisberger was 27 of 47 for 314 yards Black Josh Lambo Jerseys , 170 of them in the fourth quarter.The Jaguars held the ball nearly twice as long, with 13 rushing plays on a 15-play drive early in the game. But all they managed in the first half were three field goals from Josh Lambo. It was the first time in 33 games the Steelers had been blanked in the first half.Blake Bortles was largely ineffective, throwing for just 104 yards and getting back six times. His biggest gains were to Fournette out of the backfield, and the Steelers stopped Jacksonville cold in the fourth quarter to get enough chances to win.STEELER SACKSPittsburgh came into the game tied for the league lead with 31 sacks and got to Bortles six times. Javon Hargrave and T.J. Watt each had two.Watt now has 17 career sacks, the most by a Steelers player in his first two seasons since Keith Willis, who had 15 in 1982 and 1983.RAMSEY SHINESOne week after Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey tweeted after a loss to the Colts that “when I’m gone from here Josh Lambo Jerseys 2019 , y’all gone miss me,” he had his best game of the year. Ramsey had two interceptions, none bigger than in the end zone over Brown.With the Steelers trailing 9-0 in the third quarter, Roethlisberger threw to Brown over the middle. Ramsay reached over Brown’s helmet and juggled the ball before pulling it in. He tried to run out of the end zone, stumbled and kept going until he was ruled down by contact.Ramsey also broke across the middle on Brown and made a diving pick, somehow keeping the ball off the turf on a play initially ruled incomplete but overturned on review.RUNNING GAMEJames Conner came into the game with 771 yards rushing Black Marqise Lee Jerseys , tops in the AFC. He didn’t have much room against Jacksonville, gaining 25 yards on nine attempts.UP NEXTSteelers: On the road against the Denver Broncos next Sunday.Jaguars: At the Buffalo Bills next Sunday.
