The Jets have re-signed veteran nose tackle Steve McLendon.
This move made sense on a lot of fronts. The Jets are sticking with a 3-4 scheme and McLendon is a good run stopper. He’s also a very good and respected locker room presence.
McLendon, 33, gives them security and depth up front as the Jets try to fill out the rest of their roster.
The Jets also re-signed cornerback Darryl Roberts and offensive lineman Jonotthan Harrison, the team announced Thursday morning. Those moves had been reported previously.
Defensive end Henry Anderson is another key player returning.
