Running back Stevan Ridley, a former New England Patriot, reportedly agreed to terms Wednesday with the New York Jets.

Ridley missed the final 10 games of the 2014 season and the Patriots’ run to the Super Bowl with a torn ACL.

A third-round pick in 2011, Ridley rushed for 1,263 yards in 2012 and was in and out of coach Bill Belichick’s doghouse because of ball-security issues.

In New York, Ridley joins a backfield led by Chris Ivory and Bilal Powell.

Ridley also had visited the Miami Dolphins.
