New York Jets The two big needs Jets still have after bolstering offensive line By Brian Costello Published March 11, 2026, 7:56 p.m. ET Jets general manager Darren Mougey IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect The Jets filled a hole on their offensive line Wednesday.
The team agreed to a two-year contract with guard Dylan Parham, according to a source. Parham spent the past four years with the Raiders. The contract is for two years, $16 million, with $7.5 million guaranteed, and he can make as much as $20 million.

Parham will slide into the left guard spot left vacant by the departure of John Simpson in free agency. Simpson signed a three-year, $30 million contract with the Ravens. The Jets also lost guard Alijah Vera-Tucker to the Patriots.
Parham, 26, is not guaranteed to be the left guard, but he is now the early favorite. The Jets still could address the position in the draft next month, but now they don’t have to. Parham gives them a realistic starter if they don’t find a player that fits or is available in the draft.
