However, the tag extended the contract negotiations between Folk and the Jets until both sides agreed to a four-year, $12 million extension. Unfortunately, the Jets waived him to clear cap space before the 2017 season, the final year of the deal.

But the 38-year-old got another lease on his NFL career after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers signed him to a one-year, $1.75 million deal. Folk didn’t play in the NFL in 2018 but returned a year later via a one-year, $1.03 million contract with the Patriots.
