After finishing college following the 2019 season, Jonsen joined the Buccaneers as an undrafted free agent. He bounced around in free agency and on the practice squads, never appearing in an NFL game. Tampa Bay signed him to a futures contract in January.
Already on the fringe of the Buccaneers’ roster, Jonsen’s NFL career could potentially be over. If he remains with the club, he could face a suspension from the NFL and be disciplined by the team.
