The New York Jets announced Monday that they’ve signed K Taylor Bertolet to a contract and waived CB Bryson Keeton.
Bertolet, 25, originally signed a three-year, $1.62 million contract with the Rams as an undrafted free agent out of Texas A&M back in 2016. He was set to make base salaries of $450,000 and $540,000 over the first two years of the agreement when the Rams waived him coming out of the preseason.
After sitting out the 2016 and 2017 seasons, Bertolet signed a one-year contract with the Broncos this past March, but was unfortunately waived a few weeks ago.
During the 2016 preseason, Bertolet converted all four extra point attempts but didn’t attempt a field goal.
At Texas A&M, Bertolet converted 37 of 56 field goal attempts (66.1 percent) to go along with 128 of 138 extra point attempts (92.8 percent) over the course of three seasons and 32 games.
