The Jets headed into free agency needing a slot receiver, and they’re close to landing one.
A league source confirmed that the Jets were moving toward an agreement with Jamison Crowder on Monday. Crowder reportedly will get a three-year deal for $28.5 million with $17 million guaranteed.
The free-agent negotiation period began Monday with the Jets needing to fill in their many holes. They wanted to shore up the receiver position and give quarterback Sam Darnold more weapons.
Crowder, 25, caught 221 passes for 2,628 yards and 14 touchdowns passes over the past four years for the Redskins.
