Getty ImagesNick Folk became a, pardon the expression, folk hero around New York after he hit a 32-yard field goal to beat the Colts in the first round of the playoffs.
He’ll get a chance to add to his burgeoning legend in 2011. Folk’s agents tweeted that their client and the Jets agreed to terms on a one-year contract Wednesday. No financial terms have been disclosed at this point.
Folk made 30-of-39 field goals during the regular season in his first season with the Jets. Folk kicked for the Cowboys before coming to New York, but lost his job in 2009 thanks to erratic kicking following offseason hip surgery. He’s the third member of the Jets to re-sign with the team, joining Santonio Holmes and Wayne Hunter.

My these foot jokes are witty aren’t they? Especially after seeing them for the BILLIONTH TIME!
Que 50 dumb foot comments…..now!!
Dude this guy has the leg of a 10 year old. The only good news is that they will move the kickoff down ten yards, he still won’t get it in the endzone on most kicks i bet.
his jersey is sending a subliminal message to “just go for 2″
This is Folking horrible! 30 for 39 last season and you re-sign him?! You couldn’t just find a soccer player looking for some cash?
