Haason Reddick ends holdout

Haason Reddick has ended his prolonged holdout with the New York Jets and will report to the team on Monday, following a restructured contract agreement that waives over $12 million in fines. Reddick, who was acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles in March, had not participated in any team activities due to a contract dispute, which included a request for a trade that was denied by Jets' management. His agent, Drew Rosenhaus, confirmed that discussions for a long-term extension will continue as Reddick aims to solidify his future with the Jets. While Reddick's absence raised concerns about his performance after missing significant training time, his return comes as the Jets prepare for a challenging matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. This resolution marks a significant turn in a saga that saw Reddick's contract negotiations and team relations take center stage during the offseason. The Jets, currently struggling with a 2-4 record, hope Reddick's presence will bolster their defense moving forward.
