Former Missouri Tigers kicker Harrison Mevis has earned another shot in the NFL after a standout season in the UFL with the Birmingham Stallions.

Mevis has signed a contract with the New York Jets, per Draft Diamonds. He'll join former Missouri teammates Armand Membou and Brady Cook with the Jets.

Out of college, Mevis signed as an undrafted free agent with the Carolina Panthers, but didn't make it past the preseason.

In the UFL, Mevis made 21 of his 23 attempts, including 14 of his 16 attempts past 40 yards. His longest on the season was a 56-yard make in the postseason.
