The New York Jets are “gauging the trade market” for running back Matt Forte, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
#Jets have been selling all offseason. Cut bunch of vets. Traded Calvin Pryor. Have also shopped Sheldon Richardson, Marcus Williams, et al.

Throughout the offseason, the Jets parted ways with many key veterans as they transition towards a rebuilding mode. As they were able to shed some of their veteran contracts, the Jets opened up opportunities for some of the club’s younger players.
