Jets Resign Hewitt & Maulet

There are reports saying that the Jets have resigned two of their own free agents. Neville Hewitt (ILB) and Arthur Maulet (CB) will both add to the depth on defense.

Maulet will return on a one-year deal, his agency tweeted. The 26-year-old played in 12 games and made six starts for the Jets last season at an injury-ravaged position. Maulet played pretty well. He had one interception and two passes defended against. He was a strong tackler and seemed to fit Gregg Williams’ system.

Maulet was scheduled to be a restricted free agent, but the Jets did not tender him, making him an unrestricted free agent.
