New Jets head coach Aaron Glenn praised Mosley for his contributions:

“It is hard to move on from a player like C.J. Mosley who has given everything of himself to an organization. He is a passionate leader, who put the New York Jets first and got the most out of his teammates. We wish him and his family the best in his future endeavors.”

Jets owner Woody Johnson also expressed gratitude toward Mosley, highlighting his commitment and leadership:

“C.J. was the epitome of class as a teammate. His passion and commitment inspired his teammates. We sincerely thank C.J. for his countless sacrifices and wish him the best moving forward.”

Mosley, 32 years old, joined the Jets in 2019 and played 56 games, starting 55. He collected 504 tackles, including 300 solo tackles and 3.5 sacks during his tenure. He faced injury challenges in the last seasons, including a significant toe injury in 2024.

With Mosley’s absence, Jamien Sherwood has stepped in at middle linebacker.
