Reddick wants trade from Jets, rebuffed by general manager

The NY Jets’ deal standoff with Haason Reddick took an ugly turn today, as the Pro Bowl edge rusher officially requested to leave the team. New York fired back right away with an announcement, claiming that they are not willing to trade the player.

“We already told Reddick that our franchise will not trade him, that Haason is expected to be here with his teammates, and that he will continue to be fined per the CBA as long as he is not part of our camp,” GM Joe Douglas shared today. “Since the trade talks back a few months ago, we have been clear, direct, and consistent with where we stand. Our focus will remain on the players we have in the team as we are getting ready for the regular campaign.”

The edge rusher, unsatisfied with his deal, has missed almost a month of training camp. That has cost him almost 2 million dollars during the offseason.

The #Jets were informed by Haason Reddick’s representation that he would report and play under his current contract. That, obviously, has not happened.
