JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — A person familiar with negotiations says backup safety Andrew Wingard has agreed to return to Jacksonville on a three-year, $9.6 million contract. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the move can’t become official until Wednesday. The person says Wingard’s deal includes $6 million guaranteed and could be worth up to $13.8 million total. Wingard is one of the team’s best special teams players.
