Trumaine Johnson is set to sign a massive contract with the New York Jets. Since, the Los Angeles Rams don't need him anymore, Johnson is taking his talents to New York, where he is expected to sign a deal worth roughly $13 million per year. That would make Johnson one of the five highest paid corners in the NFL. 

The Rams' decision to trade for Marcus Peters and Aqib Talib meant they weren't going to re-sign Johnson. As a result, Johnson hit the open market and is getting a hefty payday from the Jets. The Jets have plenty of cap space and a big need at corner. The addition of Johnson helps to fill that need. 

Johnson's deal cannot be finalized until the new league year opens Wednesday at 4 p.m. ET.
