Although New York Jets safety Jamal Adams likely has two years remaining before free agency, the team is already trying to lock him down on a new long-term deal.
"The plan is for Jamal to be a Jet for life," general manager Joe Douglas said Tuesday, per Rich Cimini of ESPN.
Douglas noted that there have been "some preliminary discussions" about a new contract.
The 24-year-old has a $7.08 million cap hit for 2020 in the final season of his rookie deal, but the team can exercise a fifth-year option to keep him under contract through 2021, per Spotrac.
