Jets LB C.J. Mosley Has No Plans To Retire

Mosley added that he’s currently focused on getting back to full health after an injury-filled 2024 season. 

Considering the wide-ranging changes coming to the Jets, it would be surprising if Mosley is back for another season. 

According to OverTheCap.com, releasing Mosley as a post-June 1 release would free up $4 million of available cap space while creating $8,784,000 million in dead money.

Mosley, 32, is a former first-round pick of the Ravens back in 2014. He played out the final year of his four-year, $8,788,002 rookie contract before the Ravens picked up his fifth-year option for the 2018 season.

Mosley made a base salary of $8,718,000 for the 2018 season before signing a five-year, $85 million contract with the Jets that included $51 million guaranteed. New York re-signed him to a two-year, $17.25 million extension back in March. 

In 2024, C.J. Mosley appeared in just four games for the Jets and made three starts, recording 17 tackles and no sacks.
