The Jets are re-signing Nwangwu (hand) to a one-year contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Per Pelissero, the deal is worth up to $2.5 million. Nwangwu logged just one offensive snap over two games with the Jets last season, but he dazzled with a 99-yard kick return for a touchdown in Week 13. Nwangwu ended the campaign on IR due to a hand injury, but he's expected to be healthy by the start of training camp.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Nwangwu was primarily used on special teams last season, playing just 18 offensive snaps (11 touches). He used his 4.32 speed to churn out 920 yards and a TD on 35 kickoff returns. It's possible he's called on to use his speed in the offense more often this season following the release of Dalvin Cook. Alexander Mattison is the new starter, but Nwangwu could carve out a backup role. He'll compete with Ty Chandler, a 2022 fifth-round pick, and DeWayne McBride, a 2023 seventh-round pick. More likely, Nwangwu will be limited to kick-return duty once again.

Getting look from Jets
Nwangwu will visit the Jets on Monday, Judd Zulgad of SKOR North Minneapolis reports.
ANALYSIS
Nwangwu has had a busy offseason, as he was dumped by Minnesota after the preseason and then claimed by the Saints. However, he failed his physical in New Orleans and is now seeking another opportunity. The Jets likely have interest in Nwangwu as a special teams contributor, as he's been a strong kick returner in all three of his seasons as a pro.
