One of the top free agents the New York Jets have this offseason is defensive tackle, Sheldon Rankins.

Rankins will now be entering year eight of his career in the NFL and is turning 29 in April. He is coming off a solid 2022 season, his second with the Jets. Rankins started alongside first-team All-Pro, Quinnen Williams, and they worked to form one of the top defensive tackle tandems in football.
