The New York Jets signed free-agent cornerback Curtis Brown to a contract on Tuesday.
Brown was out of the NFL last season after tearing the ACL in his left knee in November 2013 with the Pittsburgh Steelers, who released him last March.
The 26-year-old Brown has 49 career tackles, two passes defensed and one forced fumble in 34 NFL games after he was drafted in the third round in 2011 by the Steelers out of Texas.
