Per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Cleveland’s deal includes $14.5 million in guaranteed money. The Jaguars acquired Cleveland from the Vikings in a deadline trade last season. He went on to start seven games for them, with six of his starts coming at left guard. He also stepped in to make a surprise start at left tackle in Week 14 against the Browns, showing versatility on both the interior and the outside. His new deal will keep him under contract with the Jaguars through 2026.

Cleveland started six games at left guard for the Vikings this season, earning a PFF blocking grade of 73.8. One of the better young guards in the league, Cleveland, a former second-round pick was the subject of trade rumors heading into Week 8 and hasn’t played since Week 6. He’ll now have a chance to start for the Jaguars for for the remainder of the season, while Dalton Risner is the favorite to replace him in Minnesota.

Cleveland has missed two-straight games with this injury and wasn't able to practice once all week. He's questionable at best for Week 13 as well. It's a slight downgrade for Dalvin Cook in theory, but the Panthers run defense has been abysmal for 24 months despite an upgraded coaching staff in 2020. The Vikings will also be without Adam Thielen and listed TE Irv Smith as doubtful.
