Jamien Sherwood, the young linebacker for the New York Jets, is generating considerable buzz as he heads into free agency following a stellar performance in the 2025 season. After previously starting only three games in his first three years, Sherwood exploded onto the scene, starting 16 games and leading the league with 98 solo tackles.

His total of 158 tackles, along with two sacks and ten tackles for loss, speaks volumes about his breakout year at just 25 years old. With Spotrac projecting his value to be over $14 million for two years, it’s clear that Sherwood is poised to cash in. Reports suggest there is mutual interest between Sherwood and the Jets in a new contract, hinting at a potential reunion that could solidify the Jets' defensive front.
