The New York Jets announced a handful of futures signings on Monday, officially beginning what figures to be a busy offseason for head coach Aaron Glenn and general manager Darren Mougey as they look to reshape the roster following a 3–14 campaign
The list was notably shorter than what fans might be used to seeing this time of year. While many teams sign a dozen or more players to futures contracts, the Jets added just five.
That’s largely because the Jets had already elevated a number of practice squad players to the active roster late in the season after placing several veterans on injured reserve.
