Jacksonville signed DE Paul Spicer to a two-year contract extension worth $8 million, the team announced.

Spicer, 33, is reported to have accepted a mentoring role for the team's first- and second-round draft picks, DEs Derrick Harvey and Quentin Groves.

Commentary: Spicer led the team with 7.5 sacks last season, and he has 18 sacks in the past three seasons. Keeping him around to mentor the young pass-rushing talent the Jags brought in is a wise decision.
