Before you get all excited about the Jets perhaps trading for Russell Wilson, consider this:
Russell Wilson also has a no-trade clause in his contract. So, in the end, Wilson holds the cards. https://t.co/05E66lg2sS Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) February 25, 2021
The relationship between Wilson and the Seahawks is in a pretty rough place right now. But it doesn’t seem to be as bad as the Texans’ Deshaun Watson situation.
Watson, of course, has requested a trade. He also has a no-trade clause, and would perhaps be open to playing for the Jets, who could be moving on from Sam Darnold this offseason. Darnold hasn’t impressed through three seasons, so even if the Jets don’t trade for Watson, they could draft a quarterback second overall and deal Darnold as a result of (or before) that.

It’s entirely possible that Jets general manager Joe Douglas gives quarterback Sam Darnold one more shot in 2021, the final year of his rookie contract.
And if that happens, Douglas would be wise to at least consider trading out of the second overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
Sure enough, that’s the projection in the latest mock draft from ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr.

Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets
Good morning, GGN! I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. Good news for Jets’ fans, as it’s been announced that MetLife stadium will be open to fans in limited capacity starting in March. After an entire year without anyone in the stands, it’ll not only be good to see people back, but it may also help bring some much-needed energy into the stadium on game day. It’s been a brutal year for all of us, so this is a step that things are starting to head towards the right direction. Whether or not that ends up helping the Jets remains to be seen. I know that I’d like to see the Jets play at home again while taking the proper precautions, so this is exciting news to me. With this news it looks like that day will be coming sooner than later. With that, here are your links to the team to start your morning off.
