Conor McDermott will return to the Jets in 2022.
New York re-signed the offensive lineman on Wednesday to a one-year deal, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. McDermott has spent the past three seasons with the Jets, mostly as a backup offensive tackle.
McDermott started three of New York’s final four games in 2021, but his most notable moment as a Jet came during the team’s Week 16 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. McDermott caught a one-yard touchdown pass from Zach Wilson on a trick play to give New York an eight-point lead midway through the fourth quarter.
