Roster News: Jets sign nine to futures deals

The Jets have announced that they signed most of the players who were on their practice squad at the end of the season to futures deals:

The Jets ended the season with nine players on the practice squad and another two on the practice squad injured list. The players signed are as follows:

69 Ben Braden G/T
65 Korren Kirven T
89 Jalin Marshall WR/PR/KR
1 Tre McBride WR/PR
91 Claude Pelon DE
35 Terrell Sinkfield CB
2 Joel Stave QB
84 Damore'ea Stringfellow WR
-- Dan Williams WR

The only players on the practice squad at the end of the season who did not re-sign are defensive tackle Francis Kallon and running back Jeremy Langford. These may yet receive a futures deal in due course.

A futures contract is a minimum salary deal which can be signed after the season as long as you weren't on a team's roster at the end of the year but that starts in the following season. The Jets may also seek to sign anyone not on a roster at the end of the season to a similar deal.

We will provide scouting reports on all nine of these players over the next few weeks.
