Like Parrish Smith of EPMD, Eagles GM Howie Roseman saw it coming, trading Haason Reddick to the Jets after signing Bryce Huff away for a three-year, $51 million deal.
Jets GM Joe Douglas didn’t secure a new contract for the pass rusher upon making the trade. Reddick skipped his new team’s voluntary offseason activities, including the mandatory minicamp.
Reddick didn’t show up for training camp either, and now, according to Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports, he wants to be traded again.
Haason Reddick has requested a trade from the Jets, source says. There have been no contract talks as Reddick hasn’t reported to camp, and now a trade request has been issued.

Last season, Reddick finished 15th in the league with 11 sacks and made his second straight Pro Bowl.
He recorded double-digit sacks for the fourth consecutive season, leading his team in that category and tying for 15th in the NFL. Outside of the sacks, though, Reddick’s numbers were poor by his standards.
His 38 tackles were the second-lowest mark of his career, and he didn’t force or recover a fumble after forcing five and recovering three last season. His snap share (74 percent) remained identical, indicating the drop-off wasn’t due to a lack of opportunities but mismanagement from coaches.
