The Jets added to their defensive line depth on Day 2 of free agency.

The team agreed to terms with defensive tackle Leki Fotu, according to a source.

Fotu spent the past four seasons with the Cardinals, who drafted him in the fourth round in 2020.

The Jets needed to address defensive tackle with Quinton Jefferson, Solomon Thomas and Al Woods all hitting free agency.

Fotu is the second defensive tackle the Jets have reached a deal with this week.

They also are going to sign Javon Kinlaw, the former 49er.

Fotu is 25 years old and is a big run-stuffing tackle at 6-foot-5, 334 pounds.

He started 21 games over four years in Arizona.

Last year, he started nine games and had 28 tackles, 5 for a loss and 2.5 sacks.

The Jets still need to find a No. 2 wide receiver, more offensive line help, a safety and an edge rusher to replace Bryce Huff this offseason.
