The New York Jets have a mess of their hands with CB Darrelle Reavis. They let it be known that he is available for a trade. The Pats have expressed interest, but the Jets will never send him to Foxborough. He has one year left on his contract and will be returning from a season-ending ACL injury.
Before he was hurt, he was seeking the type of contract that the Buffalo Bills gave to Mario Williams, six years for $96 million. The Jets have no desire to cripple themselves with that type of salary cap impact. Any team that gets him will only have his services for one year unless they sign him to a long term extension. How many teams are willing to give such a big contract to a player coming back from ACL surgery?
When Reavis went down with his injury, not only did the Jets season collapse, but it certainly cost Reavis untold millions. It would be great to see Reavis with the Pats, but it will never happen.
