Sauce Gardner Rejects Tee Higgins Joining Jets

New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner has expressed his disinterest in recruiting Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins, following the Jets' 40-14 loss to the Buffalo Bills, which left them with a disappointing 4-12 record. After praising Higgins' recent performance with a comment urging the Bengals to 'pay that man,' Gardner quickly dismissed suggestions for Higgins to join the Jets, stating, 'I will NOT be telling him that.' This response has sparked speculation about Gardner's own future with the Jets, as the team faces uncertainty with several key players, including Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams. The Jets are in need of a significant rebuild after yet another disappointing season with Super Bowl aspirations. Meanwhile, Higgins is expected to be a highly sought-after free agent, with potential salary demands that could complicate any recruitment efforts by the Jets. As the Jets prepare for their season finale against Miami, the focus remains on how they will navigate the offseason and improve their roster.
