Jets explore potential Joe Tippmann extension amid offseason discussions
Summary

The New York Jets face a key decision regarding Joe Tippmann's contract as they consider extending the offensive lineman, who is entering the final year of his rookie deal. Tippmann, 25, has played both center and right guard, earning a 66.0 overall grade last season. The Jets aim to enhance their roster after a disappointing 3-14 record in 2025, with optimism surrounding their offseason moves and newcomer T'Vondre Sweat. The timing of any extension may be strategic to avoid higher costs in the future if Tippmann performs well in 2026. Jets general manager Darren Mougey and head coach Aaron Glenn may have to act before training camp begins later this summer.
