The Jets have re-signed Nick Folk

[slowmoe57]

Thank God some of the glue is sticking.

Was this one of our eight missing starters?

Don't love it, don't hate it. Re-signing one of our own FAs allows us to maximize compensatory picks next year, can't complain.

[neckdemon]

hes the best offensive player we have

[faba]

He has done a good job for us so no complaints

[JADEDGREEN]

Will we be bringing in 3 other kickers to surround him, or is he the one?

The Jets have seen several starters from last season leave the team in the first few days of free agency.  One position that the Jets won’t need a replacement for is Kicker.  The team re-signed Nick Folk on Saturday.

From the Jets PR Department:

The New York Jets have re-signed unrestricted free agent K Nick Folk

Folk (K/6-1/222/Arizona/Hollywood, CA) has spent the last three seasons with the Jets after joining the team as a free agent (02/23/10). He was originally drafted by the Dallas Cowboys in the sixth round of the 2007 NFL Draft, spending three years with the club before being waived (12/21/09). In six career seasons, Folk has appeared in 94 games and has converted 134-of-172 field goal attempts (77.9%) and all 242 PAT tries. In 2012, Folk kicked in 16 games and hit 21-of-27 field goals (77.8%) and all 30 of his PAT attempts.

Several beat reporters confirmed the signing as well:
