NY Jets: Why the team stayed quiet for Tuesday’s trade deadline

NY Jets

The NY Jets stayed quiet in the final hours before the 4 p.m. deadline after previous moves.

For the second year in a row, the NY Jets had a quiet day on the NFL’s trade deadline. Despite the team’s 0-8 start and the inevitable deconstruction of the roster following the season, general manager Joe Douglas decided not to make any last-minute moves.

This can be explained by a few reasons. For starters, the Jets don’t have many players worth trading for. Other than their young stars, Mekhi Becton and Quinnen Williams, there aren’t many enticing players to call about if you’re another team’s general manager.
