-- More Mike Williams Coming Soon --
Fri Sep 13, 2024 --from FFMastermind.com

SNY.tv reports New York Jets WR Mike Williams played only nine snaps in week #1. HC Robert Saleh said the plan to get Williams more time was impacted by only running 51 offensive plays. The hope is for more on all fronts against the Titans in Week #2 and in the weeks to follow. “We were trying to get to 15 last week,” Saleh said. “Obviously, there weren’t enough opportunities. We were pacing that a little bit. If we would have gotten to a 65-play game like it normally would be, we would have been on pace. Long story short, we’re trying to get him on the field more.”

Tue Jul 23, 2024 --from FFMastermind.com

SNY.tv reports the New York Jets made LB Haason Reddick a contract offer before the trade from Philadelphia. It would have been a raise from the $14.5 million he’s scheduled to make this year. Reddick declined the offer. The Jets said if he wanted more ($25-$28m annually), they needed to see him perform first. In the meantime, the Jets would adjust his current deal (convert non-GTD to GTD, incentives). Reddick told the Jets he was on board with this. He would show up for the offseason program, minicamp, & training camp. He’d perform well early in the season, leading to an in-season extension (similar to John Franklin-Myers in 2021). Reddick then skipped OTAs, minicamp & training camp. The Jets are not willing to negotiate anything until he shows up. The Jets do not know when he plans on coming back. He will be fined for his absences.

-- Haason Reddick No-Shows OTAs --
Mon Jun 3, 2024 --from FFMastermind.com

ESPN reports new New York Jets LB Haason Reddick says he’d be happy regardless of anything that happened with his contract. But without a new contract, Reddick hasn’t been at the Jets’ Organized Team Activities. Reddick hasn’t attended any of the offseason work that was open to the media. Reddick hasn’t said his absence is contract related, but there’s speculation that he wants a new deal. OTAs are voluntary, but most players attend. When the Jets acquired Reddick, they acquired the final year of the three-year contract he signed with the Eagles in 2022. That contract calls for Reddick to get paid $15 million this season. None of that money is guaranteed, so Reddick certainly wouldn’t want to risk doing anything that would lead the Jets to cut him, although that seems unlikely.
