Jets Secure Kicker Greg Zuerlein with a Two-Year, $8.4 Million Deal

The New York Jets reinforce their special teams by re-signing veteran kicker Greg Zuerlein and adding cornerback Isaiah Oliver, aiming for stability and depth.

  • The New York Jets have re-signed kicker Greg Zuerlein to a two-year contract worth $8.4 million, ahead of the NFL's legal tampering period.
  • Zuerlein's return brings consistency to the Jets' special teams, having made 35 of 38 field goal attempts last season, including five from 50 yards or more.
  • The Jets also signed cornerback Isaiah Oliver, formerly of the 49ers and Falcons, to bolster their defensive backfield.
  • The team lost edge rusher Bryce Huff to a three-year, $51 million deal with Philadelphia, marking a significant free agency departure.
  • Zuerlein's performance, including setting a franchise record with 26 consecutive field goals, has been crucial for the Jets' special teams success.
