Former Colts cornerback Pierre Desir officially signed his one-year contract with the Jets on Thursday.

Desir is expected to be one of the Jets’ starting corners following the release of Trumaine Johnson and Darryl Roberts.

A fourth-round pick of the Browns in 2014, Desir spent the past three seasons with the Colts. He played in 37 games, including 29 starts, and had 161 tackles, 26 passes defensed, five interceptions and two forced fumbles.

Desir’s play dipped a little last year and the Colts waived him early during free agency.
