Cap numbers for all Jets players under contract in 2024

A look at the current cap charges for all the Jets under contract for the 2024 season.

With the 2024 offseason underway for the New York Jets, much work will need to be done to get the team back into contention after another disappointing 7-10 season full of injuries yet again.

While the Jets have plenty of key free agents to contend with, they do have some core players set to come back. Overall, the Jets currently have 53 players under contract, according to Over the Cap. We’ll take a quick look at those players and their current cap charges for the 2024 season. This does not include players such as Duane Brown and Jordan Whitehead who will have their contracts voided this offseason but still have dead money count against the cap.

Certainly these numbers can and will change through restructures. But for now, here is where things stand.

 

Jets’ team award winners for 2023, including team MVP Quincy Williams

A rundown of the team award winners for the Jets for 2023 including team MVP Quincy Williams.

The Jets announced their team award winners this week, including team MVP, their Good Guy Award and a few others. Some aren’t much of a surprise, some may be for some people.

The season certainly did not go the way the Jets had hoped for, starting with the injury to quarterback Aaron Rodgers in Week 1 to the offense imploding. A 4-3 start turned into a 6-10 mark entering the final week of the season. All eyes are starting to turn the page to the 2024 season. But this is a good way to put a positive note on the 2023 season.

Here is a quick rundown of the winners for each award for the Jets in the 2023 season.

Two former Ravens exchange pleasantries after Jets vs. Browns Week 17 matchup

The Ravens saw two former players exchange pleasantries after the Week 17 matchup between the Cleveland Browns and New York Jets

 The Baltimore Ravens have had many quality players walk through their doors over the course of their franchise history. While many have departed for other teams and ventures, their memories as part of the team live on.

Two former Ravens reminisced on the past after the Cleveland Browns defeated the New York Jets in Week 17. Cleveland quarterback Joe Flacco and Jets ILB C.J. Mosley exchanged a handshake after the game, with Mosley expressing it was crazy how Browns fans were changing Flacco’s name.

Flacco passed for 296 yards in the first half, the most in any half in his career, according to ESPN Stats & Information.

Flacco has now thrown for more than 300 yards in every victory in Cleveland’s four-game winning streak.

6 Jets listed in Matt Bowen’s top 101 skills list

Six Jets players were listed as the best in different skills by ESPN’s Matt Bowen.

NFL players come in all shapes and sizes. They also can vary in skill sets, making the game of football so unique. How teams blend different skill sets can make or break a football team.

Recently, ESPN NFL writer Matt Bowen took a look at 101 players in the league and picked out the best players in a variety of traits — accuracy, pass rush, even blocking kicks. The Jets landed six players on this list and we’ll go through each player and how Bowen views them and their best trait.

C.J. Mosley named Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award finalist

Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley was named a finalist Thursday for the Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award.

Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley was named a finalist Thursday for the Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award. Mosley is one of eight players in the running for the honor.

Similar to the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award — the award defensive tackle Solomon Thomas is a finalist for — each team had one nominee for the award. A panel of former players from the NFL Legends Community cut the list from 32 down to the final eight.

The award is given annually to the player who best demonstrates on-field sportsmanship, including fair play, respect for the game and opponents, and integrity in competition. The award is named after the late Art Rooney Sr., the founding owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The eight finalists are:

Jets LB C.J. Mosley
Raiders DE Maxx Crosby
Chargers LB Khalil Mack
Ravens OG Kevin Zeitler
Cardinals S Budda Baker
49ers FB Kyle Juszczyk
Cowboys QB Dak Prescott
Seahawks LB Bobby Wagner

The finalists will be listed on the Pro Bowl ballot under the NFL Sportsmanship Award category. The winner will be announced during NFL Honors the week before Super Bowl LVIII.

6 Jets to watch in Week 15 vs. Dolphins

Here are six players to keep an eye on in the Jets’ Week 15 showdown against the Dolphins.

The New York Jets are looking to extend their winning streak to two games in Week 15 when they travel to face the Miami Dolphins for the second time this season. It was an impressive 30-6 victory for the Jets in Week 14 versus the Houston Texans as Zach Wilson returned as the starting quarterback.

For maybe the first time all season, all three phases of the team clicked in the win over the Texans. After heading into halftime with the score being 0-0, the offense found its rhythm, the defense stifled the Texans, and special teams helped flip field position a few times.

The idea of making the playoffs is a pipe dream for the Jets, but the team would love to finish the season strong to build momentum for next season. Here are six players from the Jets to watch in Sunday’s divisional bout against the Dolphins.

C.J. Mosley still believes in Jets, says things will click and ‘will all be worth it’

C.J. Mosley still believes in Jets, says things will click and ‘will all be worth it’

They say good things come to those who wait. Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley may be putting that theory to the test. The Jets lost to the Atlanta Falcons 13-8 in Week 13, dropping their fifth straight game to fall to 4-8 and wasted yet another strong defensive performance from Mosley and company.

After the game, Mosley was asked about the Jets having the same issues this year causing them to lose as they did last year, namely the offense. Mosley said, “It’s out of my control.” Mosley added that he still believes in the Jets organization, things will eventually click for the team and “it will all be worth it.”

Mosley, the Jets’ defensive captain, had five tackles in Week 13. He has a team-leading 120 tackles this season and 450 tackles in four seasons with the Jets and was named Second-Team All-Pro last season and went to his 5th Pro Bowl. Mosley also recently reached 1,000 career tackles.

Mosley said the message this week was “control what you can control” and added the defense and special teams did their part. “The result is what it was.”

Without actually saying it, Mosley was pointing the finger at the offense. Still, Mosley is committed to the Jets and bringing them back to contention. In 2024, Mosley will enter the final year of his five-year contract he signed in 2019. He’ll be 32 years old but is still playing as one of the better linebackers in the NFL. He wants to see things click for the Jets, but time may be running out, making 2024 an important year for both Mosley and the Jets organization.

Jets snap counts: Depth chart breakdown from Week 12 vs. Dolphins

Jets snap counts: Depth chart breakdown from Week 12 vs. Dolphins

Black Friday turned out to be another dark day for the New York Jets, falling to 4-7 after a 34-13 loss to the Miami Dolphins, including the Fail Mary that turned into a 99-yard interception return for a touchdown for Miami. The Jets have lost four straight but hey, at least some of their young players are getting reps. One of the big stories of the game was New York making wide receiver Allen Lazard a healthy scratch. Lazard signed a four-year, $44 million contract ($22 million guaranteed) in the offseason. He is fourth on the team in receiving.

Lazard’s benching allowed some other young talent to get a chance to gain some experience against the Dolphins. We’ll take a look at the offensive and defensive snap counts from Week 12 and how much the Jets are still going with the youth movement.

5 takeaways from Jets’ dreadful 34-13 loss to Dolphins

Here are 5 takeaways from the Jets’ lopsided 34-13 defeat to the Dolphins in Week 12.

The New York Jets are steadily falling to the wayside in the AFC playoff race following a devastating 34-13 defeat to the Miami Dolphins on Friday. With another loss on the schedule, the Jets have lost four consecutive games and own a 4-7 record.

Even with a quarterback change, it was more of the same from New York’s offense. The entire game was perfectly illustrated with the Jets recording an interception on defense then Tim Boyle immediately throwing a pick-six on a Hail Mary right before halftime.

For yet another embarrassing loss for the Jets, here are our five immediate takeaways from the team’s Week 12 matchup against the Dolphins.

Jets snap counts: Depth chart breakdown from Week 11 vs. Bills

Jets snap counts: Depth chart breakdown from Week 11 vs. Bills

The Jets hit rock bottom in their 32-6 loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 11, a game in which the Zach Wilson era may have finally come to an end after the team sent Tim Boyle onto the field late in the third quarter with the team down 29-6.

Head coach Robert Saleh mentioned a potential youth movement for the team and he at least went ahead with those plans, especially on offense. Players such as Jeremy Ruckert, Jason Brownlee and Israel Abanikanda saw more playing time while tight end C.J. Uzomah essentially became a non-factor.

Here’s the snap count breakdown for offense and defense from Week 11 against the Bills.
