Aaron Rodgers Supports Haason Reddick Amid Trade Request

Haason Reddick, the New York Jets' edge rusher, has requested a trade after a lengthy contract standoff, drawing support from teammates including quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Reddick's absence from training camp continues as he seeks a new deal reportedly worth $25-28 million annually, and he has already incurred significant fines for missing mandatory activities. Jets general manager Joe Douglas has confirmed the team will not trade Reddick, leaving the situation unresolved as the season approaches. Rodgers expressed empathy for Reddick's situation, suggesting that while they would like him to remain a Jet, he must ultimately prioritize his own interests and family. The Jets acquired Reddick in a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles earlier this year, and he is coming off two consecutive Pro Bowl selections. With Reddick's status uncertain, the team remains focused on preparing for the upcoming season.
