08/31/2010 - Jacksonville, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Jacksonville Jaguars placed rookie defensive tackle D'Anthony Smith on injured reserve Tuesday.

Smith, a third-round pick out of Louisiana Tech, will miss the entire 2010 season because of an Achilles injury.

A two-time First-Team All-WAC selection, Smith finished his collegiate career with 23 1/2 tackles for loss and 12 1/2 sacks to go along with 197 tackles in 49 games.

The Jaguars also placed center John Estes on IR and waived center Cecil Newton, defensive end Julius Williams, cornerback Josh Gordy and wide receiver Roren Thomas. Williams had eight tackles in 11 games, including one start, last year.

Jacksonville also signed rookie center Bradley Vierling to reach the league roster limit of 75. The team will cut the roster to 53 on Saturday.
