The Jacksonville Jaguars recently re-signed four players: defensive
tackle Jose White, offensive linemen Mark Nori and Todd Fordham
and safety Blaine McElmurry. Length and terms of their contracts
are not disclosed.
White, 26, played in 15 games last season as a backup defensive
tackle. He made a career-high 38 tackles (18 solo) and three sacks,
and he also forced a fumble. White joined the Jaguars late in the
1996 season.
Nori, 25, spent the first three months of last season on the practice
squad and was activated to the 53-man roster on November 30,
although he did not see any action the rest of the season. A Boston
College graduate, Nori joined the Jaguars for the final two games of
the 1997 season.
Fordham, 25, played in 11 games last season, starting the Tennessee
game on December 13 for the injured Rich Tylski. Fordham was
signed as an undrafted rookie out of Florida State in 1997, seeing
action in one game that season.
McElmurry, 25, played in the final two games and both playoff
contests in 1998 after being signed off Tennessee's practice squad.
He made three tackles while playing 53 plays on defense in the
season finale against Pittsburgh.
