The New York Jets on Wednesday addressed two of their thinnest positions -- inside linebacker and left tackle -- by signing former Green Bay Packers linebacker Jamari Lattimore and re-signing tackle Ben Ijalana.

Terms of the contracts weren't immediately available, but they're likely one-year deals.

With Nick Bellore still floating in free-agent limbo, the Jets had no experienced backups behind David Harris and Demario Davis. In that respect, Lattimore makes sense. He also has value as a special-teamer.

Listed at 6-foot-2 and 228 pounds, Lattimore started five games last season for the Packers, playing a total of 273 defensive snaps. In fact, he started Week 2 against the Jets, but he eventually lost the job because of poor play. He finished the season with 35 tackles (including eight against the Jets), one interception and no sacks. He suffered an ankle injury Nov. 30 and spent the rest of the season on injured reserve. He's a fast player with durability issues.

He made $1.4 million last season, playing for the restricted-tender amount. In 49 career games, all with the Packers, he has two sacks and one interception.

Ijalana spent the last two seasons with the Jets, but he dressed for only three games. In 2014, he played a grand total of six offensive snaps. Right now, he's a primary backup to D'Brickashaw Ferguson at left tackle.
