Jets LB McCrary-Ball Signs Tender

Published April 8, 2026 · Updated April 8, 2026 · NBC Sports

Jets linebacker Marcelino McCrary-Ball signed his tender on Wednesday, confirming his return to the team as an exclusive rights free agent.

McCrary-Ball, 27, missed most of the 2025 season after injuring his hamstring in Week 3 against the Buccaneers. The Jets activated him from injured reserve late in the season, and he appeared in two more games, recording 23 tackles and a forced fumble across 106 defensive snaps and 120 special teams snaps.

Originally signed by the 49ers as an undrafted free agent in 2022, McCrary-Ball found a home with the Jets in 2023 and has played 109 defensive snaps and 363 on special teams over three seasons.
