The New York Jets signed free agent guard/center Trystan Colon to a contract on Friday, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.

The #Jets are signing G Trystan Colon, source says. Former undrafted free agent of the #Ravens wasn’t tendered as a restricted free agent, so he was free to sign elsewhere. Heads to Florham Park after three years in Baltimore.

Colon reportedly met with the Falcons on Friday, but decided to join the Jets, Garafolo adds.

The 24-year-old offensive lineman went undrafted in 2020 and signed with the Ravens. He was waived in Sept. 5, 2020, but would join their practice squad the next day. Colon was elevated to their active roster in October 2020 and spent three seasons in Baltimore.

The Ravens had previously placed an exclusive rights free agent tender on Colon last year, but decided not to tender him this season as a restricted free agent, which allowed him to seek employment by the Jets.
