Overview
- Tony Pauline reports mutual interest between Alex Anzalone and the Jets, positioning a potential reunion with head coach Aaron Glenn.
- Pauline now says several teams are pursuing the veteran linebacker with multi-year offers, creating a scenario where the Jets may need to overpay.
- Detroit’s ability to retain Anzalone is constrained by cap pressure, with the Lions more than $9 million over the limit per Spotrac.
- The Jets hold roughly $77 million in cap space as of February 26, giving them flexibility to meet a higher price if they choose.
- Greg Auman has predicted a Jets signing, while Bears interest has been floated only as speculation after Tremaine Edmunds was permitted to seek a trade, and no offers have been reported publicly ahead of the March 11 market opening.
