Another former 49er is joining the Jets. - New York is signing DE Soloman Thomas to a one-year deal, per multiple reports. The move reunites Thomas, 26, with Robert Saleh, who coached Thomas from 2017-2020 with the 49ers. - Thomas spent the 2021 season with the Raiders. - The 49ers drafted Thomas third overall in 2017, but he only tallied six sacks, 23 QB hits and 95 combined tackles in 48 games for San Francisco. Thomas finished with two sacks, 12 QB hits and 35 combined tackles in 2021. - This is a low-risk, high-reward move for the Jets. Thomas is a young defensive lineman with ties to Saleh, but he hasn’t lived up to expectations yet. Thomas provides New York with desired depth up front, though, especially with Carl Lawson still recovering from an Achilles injury suffered last summer. - - List - - 5 things to know about new Jets DE Jacob Martin - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Jets Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Jets Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
