According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the deal is worth $20 million.
Becton, 27, was New York's first-round selection during the 2020 NFL draft. Becton departed the Jets at the end of his rookie contract after the 2023 season.
Becton struggled with injuries in New York and signed with the Philadelphia Eagles last offseason. Becton had a bounce-back year with the Eagles and won a Super Bowl.
Jets Wire will continue to provide updates throughout the 2025 offseason.
