The Jaguars released Mims on Sunday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. A second-round draft pick of the Jets in 2020, Mims boasts an intriguing size and speed profile but hasn't been able to translate it into meaningful success at the NFL level. The 26-year-old Mims hasn't seen NFL action since the 2022 season and could be running out of opportunities. He's now been cut by three organizations since the Jets traded him to the Lions last summer, with Detroit, Pittsburgh and Jacksonville having moved on from Mims without him having appeared in a regular-season game.

Cut by Jacksonville
The Jaguars released Mims on Sunday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. A second-round draft pick of the Jets in 2020, Mims boasts an intriguing size and speed profile but hasn't been able to translate it into meaningful success at the NFL level. The 26-year-old Mims hasn't seen NFL action since the 2022 season and could be running out of opportunities. He's now been cut by three organizations since the Jets traded him to the Lions last summer, with Detroit, Pittsburgh and Jacksonville having moved on from Mims without him having appeared in a regular-season game.
Finds chance in Jacksonville
Mims is slated to sign with the Jaguars, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Mims was waived by Pittsburgh on Tuesday, but he's quickly found a new opportunity to compete. He logged time on the Steelers practice squad last season, though he never suited up for a game with the team. The 2020 second-round pick spent the first three seasons of his NFL career with the Jets, before being traded to the Lions during the 2023 offseason, then failing to make Detroit's roster.
Let go by Pittsburgh
The Steelers waived Mims on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. Mims spent his first three seasons with the Jets before being traded to Detroit in July of 2023. The 2020 second-round pick was eventually waived with a calf injury by the Lions ahead of last season. He then went unsigned before linking up with Pittsburgh's practice squad in October, though he never appeared in a game for the Steelers during the 2023 campaign and signed a future/reserves contract in January. Mims recorded 11 catches for 186 yards over 10 games during the 2022 season.
