Johnny Mundt: Everything you need to know

Mundt agreed to terms Tuesday on a one-year contract with the Eagles, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. Mundt quickly found a new home after being released by the Jaguars on Monday. The 31-year-old tight end played 385 offensive snaps last season but mostly stuck to a run-blocking role, catching just nine of 19 targets for 111 yards and no touchdowns. At the time of this report, Dallas Goedert still hasn't re-signed with the team, but the Eagles did sign Grant Calcaterra to a one-year deal, according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Mundt should be a key blocking piece to the Eagles' run-heavy attack, which frequently utilizes multiple tight ends, in 2026 regardless of Goedert's status with the team.

The Jaguars released Mundt on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Mundt signed a two-year deal with the Jaguars in March of 2025 after spending the three prior years with the Vikings, but his time in Jacksonville will end after just one season. He caught nine passes (on 19 targets) for 111 yards across 16 regular-season games in 2025, when he served mostly as a run blocker and as a backup to Brenton Strange. Now that he's a free agent, Mundt should garner interest from teams looking to add a depth tight end who can serve as an extra blocker.

Mundt caught his only target for 16 yards during Sunday's 41-7 win against the Titans. The 31-year-old's 16-yard reception during the second quarter was his first catch since Week 12 in Arizona. Mundt played in 16 games this season while serving as a secondary tight end for the Jaguars, and he finished the regular season with nine catches for 111 yards. He's under contract with Jacksonville for 2026, but he carries a $3.25 million cap hit could be released with just a $500,000 dead cap penalty.
