Haason Reddick demands Trade from Jets

 It only took four months, but Pro Bowl defensive end Haason Reddick has demanded a trade from the New York Jets. 

This incredibly bizarre situation is all about his contract negotiation with New York that has stalled. Reddick wants a reported $25 to $28 million annually, while the Jets rather have the player in camp and show a commitment to the team before extending such a big contract. 

 The Jets offered Reddick a deal before his trade from Philadelphia was complete, and he rejected it. Since then the Jets have made concessions like flipping guaranteed money for this year; he is due $14.25 million, and increasing on field incentives, but still nothing has been accomplished. 

 Reddick has been a hold out since June's mandatory mini-camp. Now he may not even suit up for Gang Green. 

There is chance this could extend into the regular season, and if it does, what a disaster for the Jets, and for Reddick. 

At the end of the day, it's all about leverage. The Jets right now have it, but it could swing the other way, should the Jets struggle without Reddick in the lineup.
