A report from Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com says that in speaking to execs around the league, there are those who believe the Jets may have “no choice” but to trade Haason Reddick.
The disgruntled edge rusher who recently demanded a trade, has amassed over $5 million in fines for failing to report this season as he hopes for a bigger pay day. He will continue to rack up roughly $800,000 per week as he is now losing game checks.
Gang Green dealt for Reddick this offseason after, according to Connor Hughes of SNY, believing Reddick would play ball. The Jets believed Reddick was going to come in to camp and work toward earning a new deal.
Meanwhile, Reddick and his camp say he has no plan to report withing first getting his new deal. Both sides are dug in deep but at some point something will have to give.
Following their season-opening loss, Reddick likely believed his position was strengthened as Robert Saleh’s defense generated close to zero pass rush.
