NEW YORK (AP) - The Jets have signed running back LaDainian Tomlinson to a two-year contract, adding an aging star to an offense that ranked No. 1 in rushing last season.

Tomlinson's agent, Tom Condon, confirmed the deal Sunday night.

Tomlinson spent Friday with the Jets, capping it with dinner with coach Rex Ryan, general manager Mike Tannenbaum and other team officials.

The 2006 NFL MVP was cut last month by San Diego, chose New York over Minnesota after visiting the Vikings on Thursday.

The Jets went after Tomlinson hard despite the fact he turns 31 in June and is coming off his least productive season. He's expected to back up Shonn Greene, who became the starter after Thomas Jones was released last week.
