In the NFL, there’s an unofficial barometer for whether a trade worked: if the fans of the opposing team are furious, it usually means the other team got the better end of the deal. By that measure, the New York Jets just aced their latest move.
The Jets acquired cornerback Jarvis Brownlee in a trade with the Tennessee Titans on Tuesday, sending a 2026 sixth-round pick to the Titans in exchange for Brownlee and a 2026 seventh-round pick. Needless to say, Titans fans are livid.
Brownlee has started 16 of a possible 19 games since entering the league as a fifth-round pick in 2024.
