In the NFL, someone at the ripe old age of 34 years old shouldn’t be coming off arguably the best season of their career. They should be headed to the retirement home.
Somehow or another, former Baltimore Ravens safety Tony Jefferson isn’t just still going; he’s scored another contract after putting up a career-high 4 interceptions in 2025.
“Sources: TheChargers are re-signing S Tony Jefferson to a 1-year, $2M deal,” NFL insider Jordan Schultz wrote on his official X account on Wednesday. “A locker room favorite, Jefferson posted career-highs in INTs (4) and passes defensed (7) in 13 games last season — and now he’s back with the Bolts. After Darius Slay retired this week, Tony Jefferson is now the only DB from the 2013 draft still on an active NFL roster. Jefferson was undrafted.”
Jefferson, 5-foot-11 and 200 pounds, has 2 separate stints with the Ravens, from 2017 to 2019 and again in 2021. He was the full-time starter for the Ravens at safety in 2017 and 2018, including starting all 16 regular-season games in 2017.
