Quindarius Dunnigan’s tenure with the Jaguars
The Jaguars signed Dunnigan after the 2026 NFL draft as an undrafted free agent.
What to know about Quindarius Dunnigan
After four seasons at Middle Tennessee State, Dunnigan spent the last two years at Michigan State. In this most recent season, Dunnigan saw a big uptick in production, totaling 21 pressures and five sacks after recording just six pressures and one sack in 2024, despite seeing only 65 additional pass-rush snaps.
Throughout his career, he’s graded out well as a run defender by PFF’s metrics and was a sound tackler in 2025. Between two seasons at Middle Tennessee State and two at Michigan State, Dunnigan recorded 26 tackles for loss out of 104 tackle attempts.
Looking ahead to 2026 for Quindarius Dunnigan
Dunnian faces an uphill battle when it comes to making the 53-man roster. We know that Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker will lead the way, but also ahead of Dunnigan on the depth chart are Wesley Williams, Danny Striggow, BJ Green, and Zach Durfee.
That’s six players listed, with some teams rostering just five at this position. Although the Jaguars showed us last year that they’re willing to have six defensive ends on the final roster.
Fellow UDFA Bryan Thomas Jr. has managed to stand out as well during offseason programs. The ceiling for Dunnigan is likely the practice squad in Year 1.
