McCrary-Ball Signs Tender, Stays with Jets

0:00It's April 8th, from breaking news to Sunday match-ups. This is NFL News Today, powered by AI, Jets Linebacker, Marcellina McQuerry, ball locked in his future with the team by signing his tinder this Wednesday. As an exclusive rights free agent, that means he's back for another run with the green and white, no drama and negotiations. Earlier this season, he dealt with a hamstring injury during the week 3 loss to the Buccaneers. The Jets brought him off injury reserve late in the year, and he suited up for two more gains, showing he's ready to contribute. McQuerry Ball's journey started as an undrafted free agent with the 49ers back in 2022. They waved him after preseason, but kept him on the practice squad. Last year, he latched on with the Jets practice squad, and finally carved out a spot on the active roster. Over three seasons, he's logged 109 defensive snaps and 363 on special teams with 23 tackles and a forced fumble this year alone from 106 defensive plays and 120 on specials.

1:03With this deal done, expect him to keep grinding on defense and special teams as the Jets build depth, heading into next season.
