FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- This time, New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson made his intentions clear. It was a departure from last December, when public frustration fueled speculation that he was considering a trade request.
"I'm hopeful I'm a Jet for life and that we get this thing rolling and that all of our best days are ahead of us," Wilson said Wednesday after the Jets' first open OTA practice.
Wilson's comments were significant because he's eligible for a contract extension. Nothing is imminent, but Jets officials have said they'd like to lock up their top young players.
