Report: Former 49ers RB Tevin Coleman, Jets Agree to 1-Year, $2M Contract

The New York Jets have reportedly signed veteran running back Tevin Coleman to a one-year, $2 million deal, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.

He'll be joining a running back group that includes La'Mical Perine and Ty Johnson, and will play in a familiar offense from his San Francisco days under new head coach Robert Saleh and offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur, who were both on the Niners' coaching staff.

The familiarity makes perfect sense. New #Jets OC Mike LaFleur gets one of his guys and NYJ gets some depth and upside.
