Ahead of minicamp starting on Tuesday, the Jacksonville Jaguars announced on Monday that they’ve signed punter Logan Cooke to an extension.
On Cooke’s original deal, he was entering the final year of his contract and was set to be a free agent in 2026. The team announced that this is a four-year extension, which will keep Cooke in Jacksonville through the 2029 season.
Cooke is coming off a 2024 season where he was named to his first Pro Bowl, along with being named a second-team All-Pro.
On the year, Cooke averaged almost 50 yards per punt attempt, and his net average of 44.8 yards per punt was the second-best in the NFL.
By PFF’s tracking data, Cooke was also in the top five in punts downed inside the 20-yard line and had just three touchbacks the entire year. Cooke was 12th among punters in return rate as well, with he and the Jaguars’ punt coverage unit as a whole limiting opportunities for opponents.
As a collective special teams group, the Jaguars had one of the top units in the NFL last season, with Cooke and the punt team playing a key role in those overall rankings.
Cooke was a seventh-round pick by the Jaguars in the 2018 NFL draft and has spent his entire career with the team.
