The Jets have signed first-round draft pick Jermain Johnson, per several sources. Johnson, who the Jets traded back into the first round to select, will reportedly receive a four-year fully guaranteed 13.08 million dollar contract. The Jets will have a club option for a fifth year should they choose to exercise it.
Johnson (6-4, 254) played at three schools in five seasons, wrapping up at Florida State in 2021. He started at Independence Community College for two seasons before transferring to Georgia for a pair and Florida State for one.
