Haason Reddick Requests Trade, Joe Says NO!

By Glenn Naughton Posted On August 12, 2024

The contract dispute between Haason Reddick and Joe Douglas just took a turn for the worse. The premier edge rusher has asked to be traded after his holdout field to yield the desired result.

Hoping to join an elite group of edge rushers making $25 million or more per year, Reddick has yet to take part in any Jets offseason or training camp activities. As a result, he’s racking up astronomical fines that cant be forgiven under the current CBA.

Responding to the request being made public, Jets GM Joe Douglas has said no deal will be made.

In his statement, Douglas said the Jets “will not trade him” in referring to Reddick who, he continued, “will continue to be fined per the CBA if he does not report”.

As we pointed out just yesterday, Reddick is in a difficult spot as the Jets depth means they can sit back and wait. Perhaps Reddick has realized this is in fact the case and would rather go to a team that’s far more desperate, and therefore willing to pay for his services.
