Center Ryan Kalil has decided to return to the NFL.

On Thursday ESPN reported that the 34 year old signed a one year, $8.4 million contract with the New York Jets.

The veteran offensive lineman retired from the NFL at the end of last season but after three months was ready to return to the league. The 6’2 300 pound Kalil was drafted in the second round by the Panthers in 2007 where he would spend his entire 12 year career. During that time he would play in 148 games, starting all but three and become a 1x Second Team All Pro, a 2x First Team All Pro and a 5x Pro Bowler.

He is a welcome addition to the Jets offensive line.
