JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The Jacksonville Jaguars have signed receivers Ramses Barden and Chad Hall following injuries to Mike Brown and Nathan Slaughter.

Brown left training camp Wednesday with tightness in his right hamstring. Slaughter was waved/injured Wednesday after spraining his left foot Tuesday.

Brown and Slaughter bring the total to seven receivers on the sideline for the Jaguars. Jacksonville already was without Cecil Shorts III (hamstring), Allen Robinson (hamstring), Tandon Doss (ankle) and Ace Sanders (leave of absence). And Damian Copeland (wrist) was placed on injured reserve last week.

The 6-foot-6 Barden, a third-round draft pick by the New York Giants in 2009, caught 29 passes for 394 yards in four seasons.

The 5-foot-8 Hall totalled 16 receptions for 155 yards and two touchdowns in three seasons with Philadelphia and Kansas City.
