Report: Ngakoue changing agents amid pursuit of trade

Yannick Ngakoue has parted ways with his agent as he continues to pursue a trade from the Jacksonville Jaguars, a source told ESPN's Michael DiRocco.

Ngakoue still hasn't signed his franchise-tag tender and has yet to attend Jaguars training camp, though he's not contractually obligated to do so.

The defensive end hasn't backed off his trade request from earlier this offseason and doesn't plan to sign in the immediate future. The former third-round pick even reportedly engaged in contract discussions with other teams and is open to playing on the one-year tender elsewhere.

Despite Ngakoue's desire to leave, Jacksonville has been unwilling to deal him this offseason.

Head coach Doug Marrone said in July that he hasn't recently been in contact with his star pass-rusher.
