Bryce Huff signs restricted free agent tender with Jets

Bryce Huff is back

Jets defensive end Bryce Huff signed his restricted free agent tender, per ESPN’s Rich Cimini.

The Jets gave Huff a second-round tender, meaning another team could have signed Huff to an offer sheet and if the Jets chose not to match, they would have received a second-round pick.

That was also a sign of how high the Jets are on Huff, who continued to show a lot of promise as a pass-rusher. In limited time, Huff recorded 3.5 sacks. Only Quinnen Williams (12), Carl Lawson (7) and John Franklin-Myers (5) had more.

Huff will make about $4.3 million from the tender. He’ll be a restricted free agent after the 2023 season.
