Jacksonville Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio signed a five-year contract extension Thursday, a reward for winning his first playoff game.

Del Rio’s salary was not disclosed, but it was believed to be a significant jump from the original five-year, $6.5 million contract he signed in 2003.

“Clearly when I reflect back on the last five years, great things have happened,” team owner Wayne Weaver said. “Under Jack’s leadership, this franchise has continued to really make great progress.”

Garrard gets an extension, too...

Quarterback David Garrard has signed a contract extension with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Terms of Monday’s deal were not released. But Garrard and his agent, Albert Irby, had been looking for something similar to the six-year, $67.5 million contract Dallas quarterback Tony Romo signed last season.
