The Jacksonville Jaguars released veteran cornerback Will Blackmon on Thursday.

Blackmon, 30, started 11 games in two seasons with the Jaguars.

In 2013, he tallied 40 tackles, two forced fumbles, a fumble recovery and an interception. Last season, he had 28 tackles, a sack and a forced fumble but missed the final eight games with a broken finger.

The development of 2014 fourth-round draft pick Aaron Colvin, 2013 seventh-round pick Demetrius McCray and 2013 third-round pick Dwayne Gratz made Blackmon expendable.

Blackmon, a fourth-round pick by the Green Bay Packers in 2006, has played nine years with the Packers (2006-09), New York Giants (2010-11) and Jaguars, who picked him up after he was one of the final cuts by the Seattle Seahawks in 2013.
