As per The Athletic's Michael-Shawn Dugar, the Shaquill Griffin contract is set to be worth $44.5 million with the Jaguars. As mentioned, the cornerback had several offers from other teams, including the Seattle Seahawks. However, NFL Network's Mike Garofalo later reported that Griffin and the Seahawks did not have an agreement regarding money.

From @gmfb on the free agent CB market. William Jackson, Patrick Peterson and Shaquill Griffin are among the top available but the second tier of players at the position should get good money as well.

By signing with the Jaguars, Griffin will return to his home state Florida. 

Shaquill Griffin draft

The Shaquill Griffin draft story began when the Seahawks picked him in 2017 as the Round 3 Pick 90. A year later, his twin brother Shaquem Griffin (linebacker), was drafted. Since then, they have also played together for one team. With Griffin leaving for the Jaguars, both twin brothers will play for opposing teams in their NFL career for the first time. 

However, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, the Seahawks might not offer Shaquem – who is a restricted free agent – a contract. While the possibility is slim, both brothers could end up reuniting with the Jaguars.
