Jaguars place winning waiver claim on Babin
Jason Babin - DL - Jacksonville Jaguars
Nov. 28, 2012 - 6:25 PM ET

Jaguars claimed DE Jason Babin off waivers from the Eagles.

Jacksonville is second in the waiver claim order, so Babin didn't make it far. According to NFL.com, three teams placed claims. The Jags are now on the hook for his remaining $1.69 million salary. Babin should immediately goose the league's worst pass rush, and will be auditioning for a roster spot in 2013. Babin is signed through 2015, but has no guaranteed money beyond 2012. Even if he's back in Jacksonville next season, it will almost certainly be on a renegotiated deal. The author of 36.5 sacks since 2010, Babin will turn 33 in May.
