Former 6-foot-4 Ohio State QB who turned into WR gets cut from Jacksonville Jaguars
Published:
Terrelle Pryor is an incredible athlete.
He showed it at Ohio State from 2008-10. Not only could Pryor throw the ball well, but he was a heck of a runner because of his athleticism. With that athleticism, he ultimately switched from quarterback to wide receiver in the NFL.

Pryor, in 2016 with the Cleveland Browns, caught 77 passes for 1,007 yards and 4 TD. That was his breakout season. Since then, he has only caught 36 passes for 492 yards and 2 TD.
For 2019, Pryor was hoping to make the Jacksonville Jaguars’ roster and make a difference for an offense that — many would think — is looking for play-makers. On Friday, however, Pryor reportedly got cut:

Where will Pryor end up now?
Only time will tell. However, with his size and athleticism, it would come as a surprise if the 30-year-old weren’t on an NFL roster at some point this season.
