FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- With a 40-year-old quarterback and a 77-year-old owner whose patience could be waning, the New York Jets are all about today, not tomorrow. Trying to build a championship-caliber roster, they made a series of win-now moves in the offseason, perhaps none bigger than trading for pass rusher Haason Reddick.
With the season only four weeks away, the Jets and Reddick are at odds over his contract, prompting Reddick to request a trade Monday. No one knows when he will report to training camp -- or if he will -- raising the question: What's the plan if Reddick is traded or his holdout lasts into the regular season?
