The right side of the Jets' offensive line is now complete.
The team announced Wednesday afternoon that they have re-signed free-agent guard Willie Colon.
According to a source, Colon -- who turns 31 next month -- signed a one-year, $2 million deal.
While the Jets haven't made a splash in free agency, they have addressed two important holes -- right guard and tackle. They quickly found a replacement for Austin Howard (who signed a a five-year deal with Oakland) in Breno Giacomini. And with the re-signing of Colon, the Jets maintain a level of consistency on the offensive line.
