The Jets signed Brown last year after Mekhi Becton suffered a knee injury in camp. He penned the two-year, $22 million contract in August but soon after tore his rotator cuff late in camp. He spent four games on injured reserve but was activated in October and played 12 games with the injury, delaying his surgery until after the season.
