Yep. And he will still be a RFA at the end of the contract.Am I correct that he will be 26 and UFA at the end of the 2 years?
Agreed. Nice number and still a RFA at the end. Also start of his next contract coincides with a lot of salary off the books on the backend. A couple good seasons he will set himself up nicely for a long term deal.I'm pleased with this signing.
Math checks outAm I correct that he will be 26 and UFA at the end of the 2 years?
He will be 26 with less than 7 years of pro seasons. He will be an arbitration eligible RFA with 1 year of team control when the contract expires.Math checks out
A bit surprised at this one -- given the season and then tournament DS had I thought the Jets it might have pushed for a longer deal to wrap up some UFA years before the price goes a whole lot higher.Obviously longer term would be great but yeah this deal makes the most sense for him for where he's at in his career

I guess sometimes that happens when you finally give them a real shot.At the beginning of last season I was wow this kid has a long way to go, at the end of the season I was like this kid came a long way. If he continues to elevate his play this contract will look like a steal.
He doesn't have a full seasons worth of games yet and hasn't really played much beyond a third pair level
Imo smart and expected decision from him not to anchor to a low long term aav
