Mandatory Credit: Kirby Lee-Imagn Images Defensive tackle Derrick Nnadi has reached a contract agreement with the New York Jets, his agents announced Sunday.
Terms of the deal weren't disclosed for Nnadi, a key performer for the Kansas City Chiefs during the team's three Super Bowl championships over his seven NFL seasons.
The 28-year-old has started 87 of 115 games in Kansas City, with 2024 being his least productive season as a pro. Last year, Nnadi had just 11 tackles and one start.
Conversely, Nnadi started 86 games over his first six seasons, with 222 tackles (37 per season) and five sacks.
The Jets have taken a platoon approach to refortifying their defensive tackle position this offseason, signing Byron Cowart and Jay Tufele in addition to Nnadi. Those three were signed as replacements for Javon Kinlaw, who started all 17 games for the Jets in 2024 before departing in free agency for the Washington Commanders.
