The New York Jets’ offensive line has quietly become the strongest position group on the roster, and on Friday morning, the team took an important step toward solidifying the unit ahead of the 2026 offseason.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler is reporting that the Jets have re-signed Myers to a two-year, $11 million contract with $6 million in guarantees. Myers was set to be a free agent in the offseason, but the Jets managed to strike a deal with him before he hit the open market.

The Jets signed Myers to a one-year, $2 million contract in the offseason with the expectation that he would compete for the starting center job and likely serve as the team's top backup offensive lineman.
