At that time, as veteran NFL reporter Josina Anderson writes, there was optimism that the Jets would be bringing Reddick into the fold, and Rapoport says the agreement was “all but worked out.”Reddick, however, declined to sign the deal and continued to push for a multiyear accord (as Rapoport details in an appearance on the NFL Network). As a result, this process does not appear to be any closer to the finish line than it was throughout the offseason.According to Rapoport, Reddick must report by Week 13 in order to avoid his contract tolling and to become a free agent in 2025. Otherwise, he will be in the same position – at least from a contractual standpoint – that he is currently in. But even a Week 13 report does not seem to be a sure thing, with Rapoport suggesting that Reddick could take “an even more principled stance” and walk away from the game entirely.Reddick’s decision to continue his holdout was against the recommendation of CAA, his prior agency, and his refusal to sign the one-year offer that was presented after the season started was presumably against CAA’s advice as well. Before the season got underway, New York was reportedly amenable to sweetening Reddick’s existing contract with incentives, and it is unclear how those proposals differ from the in-season offer that Rapoport reported on today (although CAA likely would not have terminated its relationship with Reddick if it believed he was right to reject the in-season overture). The Jets also offered Reddick an extension before consummating the trade that ostensibly brought the 30-year-old defender to Florham Park, though Reddick obviously turned that down as well (and to be fair, that offer was said to be a below-market one).Despite the offensive struggles that cost head coach Robet Saleh his job and led to a demotion for OC Nathaniel Hackett, the Jets are playing well on defense and presently rank fourth in the league in sacks (18). Still, the club would doubtlessly love to add a player of Reddick’s caliber to its pass rushing contingent, which would help to further compensate for the offense’s deficiencies. Whether that ever happens, though, remains to be seen.Owner Woody Johnson, who previously said that Reddick would be welcomed to the team “with open arms” should he choose to report, highlighted the uncertainty of the outcome of this saga. “This is something I’ve never seen before, you know … I don’t think any of us have seen anything like this. I think you have to be part psychologist and part some-other gist to try and figure out what is actually going on.”<ul><li>Categories:</li></ul>2 comments on “Jets Offered Haason Reddick Revised One-Year Deal After 2024 Season Began” 3 finger split • 20 hours ago I get it…Reddick wants a new contract but how does sitting out help his case ?Not getting paid on his current contract and getting fined everyday he is missing…his base contract as for 14.5 million dollars this season but he has amassed over 4.25 million in fines and counting…game checks he is missing are 791 K per game and the Jets are going after his 2.75 million signing bonus for 2024 and on top of all that if he doesn’t show up then his contract tolls over to 2025 so he won’t be a free agent until 2026…None of the fines can be waived so he is looking at almost 8 million dollars in fines, missed game checks and incentives / workout bonus lost and signing bonus lost. Father time is working against him and if any previous players that did this is an indicator ( Leveon Bell )…he will lose big time. The Jets know that he will show up right before the deadline so he gets credit for this year and he will have the same injury that seems to follow these kinds of issues…pulled groin.His agent (CCA) had a deal in place for him to cover the fines and get him through his last year so he could become a free agent and he said NO so it’s no wonder that CCA dropped him as a client.That money is gone and most likely so is his career.</div></body>
