The defensive lineman is competing with the likes of Michael Hall and Siaki Ika for a spot on the active roster in 2024.

Jefferson had five tackles (one solo), including 1.5 sacks, in Sunday's 13-8 loss to the Falcons. Jefferson's up to six sacks, which is a new career high for the 30-year-old defensive tackle, surpassing last season's mark of 5.5 with Seattle. He has 31 tackles (12 solo) and 12 quarterback hits while usually hovering around 50 percent of defensive snaps played in a rotational role on the Jets' robust defensive line.

The Jets signed Jefferson on Thursday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports. Jefferson is now in line to join New York in 2023, where he'll ultimately pursue his eighth NFL campaign. As a member of the Seahawks this past season, the 291-pounder appeared in all 17 games and tallied 29 tackles and a career-high 5.5 sacks in that span. He'll likely compete for a starting gig throughout the offseason with Solomon Thomas, given Quinnen Williams has a firm grasp on the Jets' other starting defensive tackle spot.

However, this won't keep him from suiting up for his 17th game of the season Sunday. Expect Jefferson to continue his role as a rotational defensive lineman against the Rams.
