Jets' Jacob Trouba: Receives qualifying offer from Jets

Trouba was extended a qualifying offer by the Jets on Monday, Gary Lawless of TSN reports.

Analysis:

Being given a qualifying offer makes Trouba a restricted free agent, giving the Jets the opportunity to match any offer he receives during free agency. Trouba has spent his entire three-year career with the Jets and played in a career-high 81 games last season, finishing the year with six goals and 15 assists. If the Jets bring him back, he'd likely play a similar role for the team as a bruiser on defense after notching 140 hits during the 2015-16 campaign.
