| Jets Not Expected To Use Franchise Tag On NT Sione Pouha | | | Nose tackle Sione Pouha, the Jets' top free agent, is not expected to be tagged, per a person with knowledge of the team's strategy per Jenny Vrentas of the Newark Star-Ledger. The Jets are tight on salary cap space -- they are about even with the cap as of today, ESPN reported -- so tagging Pouha does not make sense from a financial standpoint. Working on a multi-year deal before free agency opens on March 13 makes more sense, though Pouha's age, 33, would likely be a factor in the length of the deal. Source: The Redzone
