Buffalo center Connor McGovern believes his time with the Bills is finished after receiving no contact from GM Brandon Beane ahead of NFL free agency.

Connor McGovern says he does not expect to re-sign with the Bills for the 2026 season, citing no contact from Buffalo since their playoff loss and suggesting a return may be unlikely.

The New York Jets have re-signed starting center Connor McGovern, addressing a primary need before the NFL draft. Terms of the deal were not immediately available. The Jets now have four of their five starters from last year's offensive line and are targeting an offensive tackle with the 13th pick. McGovern played every offensive snap in 2020 and has missed only three games in his past six seasons.
The New York Jets have re-signed Connor McGovern, who started all 17 games for the team last season and played every snap on offense. McGovern has played the most offensive snaps for the Jets in the past three seasons and is the first Jet to log 3,000+ offensive snaps in a three-year span since 2017. He was originally a fifth-round pick of the Broncos in 2017 and played three seasons in Denver before joining the Jets in 2020.
The NY Jets offered more money to San Francisco 49ers center Jake Brendel to join them in free agency, but he ultimately decided to re-sign with the 49ers.

Despite McGovern's strong performance in recent years, the Jets seem to be exploring other options for the center position.
