Oliver signed a one-year contract with the Jets on Sunday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Oliver was a mainstay in Atlanta's secondary over the first five seasons of his career. He then signed with the 49ers as a free agent in March of 2023, going on to tally 67 tackles and one interception while appearing in all 17 regular-season games, including six starts. Oliver was then released by San Francisco on Feb. 23, allowing him to sign with a new team before the start of the new league year Wedneday.
Sets career-high in tackles Sunday

His 10 tackles Sunday was the first time in Oliver's career that he has recorded double-digit tackles in a game since entering the league in 2018. He's established himself as the slot corner behind starters Deommodore Lenoir and Charvarius Ward and Oliver has played at least 40 defensive snaps in each of the last three games.
