Don't expect the Vikings to be on Jets' Haason Reddick after trade request

Back on April 1, the Eagles traded star pass rusher Haason Reddick to the New York Jets for a conditional third-round pick, but Reddick wanted a contract in place. Fast forward to the middle of August and Reddick now wants out of New York after never receiving a contract. Reddick isn’t participating in practices and has demanded a trade.

Jets’ General Manager Joe Douglass informed Reddick they would not be trading him and he could be subject to fines if he doesn’t report — a storm is brewing in New York between the two sides.

Before the Vikings signed Texans’ Edge rusher Jonathan Greenard, Minnesota was actually interested in Reddick.

The Athletic’s Alec Lewis said the Vikings had some interest in Reddick during the rookie combine, but ultimately signed Greenard instead. Minnesota also signed Andrew Van Ginkel and drafted Dallas Turner, so Vikings fans shouldn’t expect a splash trade from Minnesota regarding Reddick.
