FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The NFL trading deadline Tuesday was like a "Seinfeld" episode for the New York Jets: Nothing happened, but it was wildly entertaining.
After a day that produced no trades but plenty of speculation, hurt feelings and damage control, the Jets find themselves in a mess. They couldn't even get a fire sale right, and now they have to deal with short- and long-term repercussions.
For now, you wonder about the Jets' locker room, already in a fragile state after a 1-6 start. It can be a sticky situation when players return to the room after being dangled in trade talks.
