The New York Jets — who failed to intercept one pass last season — are signing Pro Bowl cornerback Nahshon Wright, who had five with the Chicago Bears, to a one-year contract worth up to $5.5 million, according to multiple reports on Tuesday.

The Jets also are signing former New York Giants safety Dane Belton to a one-year, $4 million deal worth up to $6 million with incentives, per reports. New York already bolstered the secondary by acquiring five-time Pro Bowl safety Minkah Fitzpatrick from the Miami Dolphins on Monday for a 2026 seventh-round pick, multiple outlets reported.

Wright, 27, was selected to the Pro Bowl after his lone season with Chicago. He returned one interception 74 yards for a touchdown in the season opener against his previous team, the Minnesota Vikings, as the Bears went on to lead the league with 33 takeaways including 23 picks in 2025.

He also made 80 tackles, forced two fumbles, recovered three fumbles and defended 11 passes in 17 regular-season games (16 starts).

For his career, Wright has 117 tackles, six interceptions, two forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries and 16 passes defended in 50 regular-season games (19 starts) for the Dallas Cowboys (2021-23), Vikings (2024) and Bears. Dallas traded him to Minnesota in August 2024 and he played in one game for the Vikings before they released him in April 2025.

The Cowboys selected Wright in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft.

Belton, 25, played the past four seasons for the Giants, who picked him in the fourth round of the 2022 draft. He started nine of 17 games last season and totaled 120 tackles, one interception, two sacks, three forced fumbles and five passes defended.

He has started 22 of 66 games and totaled 240 tackles, six interceptions, four forced fumbles, four fumble recoveries and 16 passes defended.
