FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Cornerback D.J. Reed enjoyed his two seasons with the Seattle Seahawks. He wanted to stick around, but was insulted by their contract offer before free agency.
"They made me an offer, but the offer, in my opinion and my agent's opinion, was disrespectful for my level of play and the player I am," Reed told New York-based reporters Thursday after signing a three-year, $33 million contract with the New York Jets.
"I don't want to get into specifics because I don't want to bash anybody or do anything like that, but I definitely know my worth should be more.
