The New York Jets agreed to terms with their 2nd round rookie tight end Mason Taylor on a four year $10.46 million contract. 91.3%, $9.56 million, of the contract is guaranteed.

The Jets rookies report to training camp on July 19th, Taylor’s deal ensures he’ll be reporting to training camp on time. Taylor is expected to compete for the Jets starting tight end role so getting into camp on time was a crucial step.

Taylor getting his deal done before training camp sets him up to be a vital part of the Jets offense this year. There never seemed to be much concern about Taylor’s contract so don’t expect his ADP to rise but by avoiding a holdout he remains a solid late round tight end option.
