Jets agreed to terms with RB Matt Forte, formerly of the Bears.
The 30-year-old running back was also drawing interest from the Dolphins, who hired Forte's ex-OC Adam Gase as head coach. Forte takes the lead in a backfield that's lost Chris Ivory to the Jaguars, and will likely be watching Bilal Powell walk, as well. Forte has averaged just 4.0 yards per carry over the past two seasons, but remains one of the league's most versatile backs. He is an elite pass catcher out of the backfield. He'll likely be a part of a committee with another free agent or draft pick, but will undoubtedly be chairman. As long as he stays healthy, Forte will likely remain a top-18 fantasy back for 2016.
