Reddick appears to be taking an extreme measure in his contract standoff with the Jets.
The AFC East team acquired Reddick in a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles in late March despite knowing the defensive standout wanted a new contract. The Jets took a risk by giving up a conditional third-round pick for a player with an expiring contract, but Reddick supposedly assured the team he was fine with not having an extension in place before the season. The Jets reportedly feel that Reddick lied about his contract stance and were led to believe he would participate in minicamp and training camp.
Reddick missed the Jets’ offseason program and has not reported to the team’s training camp. He is set to make $14 million in base salary in the final year of his contract this season.
