If the\u00a0New York Jets\u00a0plan on trading\u00a0Haason Reddick, it won\u2019t be in a deal with the\u00a0Dallas Cowboys.<\/p>\n
ESPN NFL Insider\u00a0Jeremy Fowler\u00a0was told that Reddick \u201cisn\u2019t a viable option via trade due to cost.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dallas is looking at pass-rushing options outside of the building after suffering a string of injuries in the Week 4 matchup versus the\u00a0New York Giants.<\/p>\n
Superstar\u00a0Micah Parsons\u00a0suffered a high ankle sprain and\u00a0DeMarcus Lawrence\u00a0is dealing with a midfoot sprain. Fowler said Parsons is considered \u201cweek-to-week\u201d while the absence for Lawrence is considered \u201cmore open-ended, but it\u2019s not a season-ender.\u201d<\/p>\n
Fowler didn\u2019t clarify in his article for ESPN what he meant by the \u201ccost\u201d for Reddick would be too great for the Cowboys.<\/p>\n
Did he mean the\u00a0$14.25 million Reddick is scheduled to make in 2024? Or did he mean the potential trade acquisition cost it would require to convince the Jets to pull the trigger?<\/p>\n
Of course, it could be a little of both.<\/p>\n
Reddick\u2019s salary is sizable and that would limit the market of potential teams that could even trade for him. Those teams would have to find a way to fit Reddick under the cap to complete a deal.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0Jets sacrificed\u00a0a conditional 2026 third-rounder to the\u00a0Philadelphia Eagles to acquire Reddick in the first place back in March. For that to elevate to a second-rounder, Reddick would have to record at least 10 sacks and appear in 67.5% of the defensive snaps.<\/p>\n
If the Jets traded him for anything less than what they originally gave up to acquire him, they would look dumb. To be candid, trading him anywhere would probably make them look silly unless they got more back than they gave up.<\/p>\n
That seems unlikely because any team acquiring Reddick would only get him as a rental for the rest of this season. It\u2019s a fair question to ask, what version of Reddick would you even be getting?<\/p>\n
Is he in shape? Is he in football shape? Plus he\u2019s disgruntled over his contract, would he even report to his new team once he was traded?<\/p>\n
We have a lot more questions than answers at this point.<\/p>\n
Jets quarterback\u00a0Aaron Rodgers\u00a0joked and or hinted that Reddick\u00a0might have\u00a0fired his agent during an appearance on \u201cThe Pat McAfee Show.\u201d<\/p>\n
NFL Insider\u00a0Dianna Russini\u00a0of The Athletic cleared up those rumors.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat didn\u2019t actually happen; [Tory] Dandy is still communicating with the Jets on behalf of his client,\u201d Russini revealed in a column posted on Saturday, September 28.<\/p>\n
General manager Joe Douglas has stated publicly that the team has zero intention of trading Reddick.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhile the team doesn\u2019t want to give in, other GMs around the league believe the Jets need to start making calls. The NFL trade deadline is Nov. 5 (they pushed it back this year because of the 17-game season),\u201d Russini said. \u201cI don\u2019t sense panic internally in New York, especially considering the play of 2023 first-rounder\u00a0Will McDonald\u00a0has been better than expected (five sacks). As for Reddick, unless he gets a new deal, I don\u2019t expect him to show up anytime soon. At this point, it might be more surprising if he ever plays a single snap for the Jets.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
