Huff, who signed with the New York Jets in 2020 as an undrafted free agent, had a breakout season with then-head coach Robert Saleh and the Jets in 2022.
The 27-year-old Memphis alum tested the free-agent market last summer when he signed a three-year, $51 million contract with the Philadelphia Eagles, where he was intended to have a role in their pass rush but posted just 2.5 sacks through his first 10 games before being sidelined with a wrist injury.
Huff returned in Week 17 but was inactive for Philadelphia's Super Bowl LIX win over the Kansas City Chiefs.
Huff missed all of the Eagles' workouts this spring and hasn't been in attendance for any of the team's offseason program.
He'll now reunite with Saleh, the coach who helped boost his career, in the Bay.
