Jaguars activate long snapper Jacob Bobenmoyer and cornerback Jabbar Muhammad for Houston matchup
Jacksonville elevated LS Jacob Bobenmoyer and CB Jabbar Muhammad from the practice squad to the active roster for the team’s game against the Texans.
The Jacksonville Jaguars have elevated long snapper Jacob Bobenmoyer and cornerback Jabbar Muhammad from the practice squad to the active roster for their matchup against the Houston Texans, the team announced October 17.
Bobenmoyer, 29, spent the 2025 season with the Las Vegas Raiders and appeared in 17 games, making four special-teams tackles (one solo). He has played 97 NFL games across stints with the Denver Broncos (2020-22) and Raiders (2023-25), totaling 22 special-teams tackles and one fumble recovery.
Jacksonville also promoted Muhammad, 24, who previously spent the 2025 season on the Jaguars practice squad after signing with the team as an undrafted free agent following the 2025 draft. The team noted he was elevated to the active roster for the prior two games before this activation.
The elevations were made using standard practice-squad elevation procedures ahead of the Texans game.
Why It Matters
- The Jaguars are using practice-squad activations to add depth at two specialist positions, long snapping and cornerback, for the Texans game.
- Bobenmoyer’s recent game action on special teams provides immediate experience as Jacksonville turns to an active-roster option at long snapper.
- Muhammad’s prior active-roster elevations suggest Jacksonville has already integrated him into the game-week rotation.
