The Jets and CJ Mosley have re-worked the linebacker’s contract in a bid to free up some extra salary cap space.
The Jets and LB C.J. Mosley have agreed to a two-year, $17.25M deal with $13.25M guaranteed, replacing the final year of his old deal that had no leftover guarantees. The deal includes $9M fully guaranteed in 2024.
Mosley has led the Jets in tackles each of the past 3 seasons…

Due to count for over $21 million against the salary cap this season, Mosley’s re-worked deal is $17 million over two seasons. According to overthecap.com, a Mosley re-structure would save the Jets $10.5 million but those numbers aren’t official at this time.
With extra cap space created, Jets fans are wondering if there are any moves in the team’s immediate future.
One possibility looks to be Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd who is reportedly being recruited by several Jets players according to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic.
Have heard that some Jets players have been trying to recruit Tyler Boyd.
As of a couple days ago Jets weren’t pushing to sign him yet but they have some more cap space now. https://t.co/PfeM4BCULa

The Jets have made some key moves in recent days such as trading for tackle Morgan Moses and signing guard John Simpson, but they can still use some help at both wide receiver and left tackle.
