One posibility is to use a ContainerRequestFilter that's called before your method is invoked:

public class MyRequestFilter 
  implements ContainerRequestFilter {
        @Override
    public ContainerRequest filter(ContainerRequest req) {
            // ... get the JSON payload here
            return req;
        }
}
