Haason Reddick

Jets HC Robert Saleh said it would “be fair” to say Hasson Reddick won’t play in the Jets’ Week 1 matchup against the 49ers.

Diana Russini reported that Reddick is a long shot to play and Saleh confirms that report here. She added that she was told Reddick is operating with the “mindset that he will die on this sword.” Reddick initially wanted a new contract from the Eagles and the Jets traded for him anyway despite seemingly no intention of giving him a new deal. Reddick hasn’t appeared at the Jets’ facility for OTAs, mandatory minicamp, training camp or practice this week. Now that Reddick’s holdout will extend into the regular season, the question becomes when will it end.
