Coleman signed the one-year tender, worth $1.176 million, on Wednesday, leaving running back-kick returner Leon Washington as the Jets' only remaining unsigned restricted free agent.

Coleman, a sixth-round pick out of TCU in 2006, started one game last season and finished with 22 tackles and four passes defensed, primarily as a backup. He has 77 tackles, two sacks and one interception in four NFL seasons.
