Jets sign Spencer Paysinger, ex-Giants, Dolphins linebacker

Jets have David Harris' replacement.

Well, at least the guy taking his roster spot. On Friday, the team announced the signing of free-agent linebacker Spencer Paysinger. The terms and conditions of the contract aren't yet known.

Paysinger, 28, spent the last two seasons with the Dolphins as a situational defender. In 29 games, he had 83 tackles and three pass breakups. He had 58 tackles last season. Paysinger spent the first four years of his career with the Giants, where he helped the team win a Super Bowl in 2011. He had a career-high 74 tackles and the only sack of his career in 2013.
