I wonder the same thing.. seems that if they are on contract - wouldn't they have been on contract the previous season too?

How awesome would that be in real life? Couldn't be fired on the last year at your job.. so as soon as you hear whispers that management isn't happy with you - give your 1 year notice and party for a year.

can we not just offer them a job with the jets?

Yeah, that makes no sense to me whatsoever. I am getting hit with 6455 in wages per week, and I just got my team 4 weeks ago. None of the 3 have played a single game, and had I been able to fire them, I could afford 103 more seats!
