The New York Jets have officially re-signed 26-year-old inside linebacker James Burgess ahead of the 2020 regular season.

Last year, James Burgess proved to the New York Jets that he’s someone worth keeping for the near future.

In his fourth year in the league and first with Gang Green, Burgess played 10 games (all starts) in the absence of C.J. Mosley, who only participated in a pair of matchups due to a lingering groin injury. During that span, Burgess recorded 80 combined tackles, eight tackles for loss, one pick, five passes defended, and one forced fumble.
