Former Brophy DB Isaiah Oliver signs with the Jets
Darren Yamashita-USA TODAY Sports

Former Brophy College Prep defensive back Isaiah Oliver has officially signed a one-year deal with the New York Jets. After spending last season with the NFC Champion San Francisco 49ers, Oliver is headed to the AFC.

In 502 defensive snaps played for the Niners, he totaled 67 tackles, one interception, and two pass deflections. As the season progressed, Oliver spent the majority of his time playing special teams.

He did not appear in a single defensive snap during the postseason. However, the Phoenix native played a significant role in San Francisco’s special teams unit.

Oliver played two seasons for Brophy College Prep’s varsity team from 2013-15 and was dominant on both sides of the ball.

The former second-round pick now finds a new home. The Jets already have an established elite defense and Oliver can help add depth to the unit.

He will likely mix in nickel snaps for Robert Saleh’s defense and continue playing on Special Teams.
