The Jets added a much-needed weapon on offense and another pass rusher in free agency.

Running back Tevin Coleman is signing a one-year deal with the Jets, a league source said. The Jets also announce they signed veteran defensive end Vinny Curry to a one-year contract. Both deals are worth a maximum of $2 million.

The Jets needed to address the running back position and added someone who new coach Robert Saleh and offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur know very well.
