INDIANAPOLIS – The Jets need playmakers, and they want to hold on to one of their own.
The Jets plan to give wide receiver Robby Anderson, a restricted free agent, the second-round tender worth $3.1 million, a league source confirmed. This move was expected, especially after Adam Gase gushed about Anderson on Wednesday.
That doesn’t mean Anderson definitely will be a Jet next season, but the chances are good. Another team could sign him to an offer sheet that the Jets would have a chance to match. If they didn’t, the team would have to give the Jets a second-round pick.
