Report: Jets complete 1-year deal with Morgan Moses
The New York Jets and veteran offensive tackle Morgan Moses agreed to a one-year contract, a source told Sam Fortier of the Washington Post.
Moses will earn $3.6 million in base salary and can make another $1.7 million in playing-time incentives, reports NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
New York began negotiating with Moses over a week ago, though they were reportedly discussing a multi-year deal at the time.
Morgan Moses had a significant two-year offer from the Jets on the table, opted for the one-year and future flexibility. Jets get their man after working for weeks to get done.

Moses comes to the Jets after a seven-year stay with the Washington Football Team, where he lined up at right tackle. Washington released him after selecting Sam Cosmi in the second round of the 2021 draft.
Moses figures to take over for George Fant at right tackle on the Jets' suddenly intriguing offensive line. Mekhi Becton is set to return at left tackle following a standout rookie year, while first-round rookie Alijah Vera-Tucker is expected to start at left guard.
