After the recent acquisition of Davante Adams by the New York Jets, there has been a surge in interest from other NFL teams in star wide receiver Garrett Wilson, according to sources. However, despite the inquiries, the Jets have made it clear that they are not planning to trade Wilson at this time.
The addition of Adams to the Jets’ wide receiver lineup has sparked interest from other teams who see Wilson as a valuable asset, especially considering the lucrative contracts that top wide receivers have been signing in recent months. While some teams have expressed willingness to pay a high price for Wilson, the Jets are standing firm on their decision to keep him on the team.
In addition to Wilson, the Jets are also listening to offers for veteran wide receiver Mike Williams. Williams, who did not practice earlier in the week due to personal reasons, is expected to play in the upcoming game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite interest from teams like the Steelers and Chargers, the Jets have not yet made a decision on Williams’ future with the team.
The trade talks surrounding Williams have been put on hold for now, with discussions expected to resume next week. The Jets are keeping their options open as they navigate the changing dynamics of their wide receiver lineup following the acquisition of Adams.
Williams, who has been with the Jets for eight years, has expressed excitement about having Adams on the team, despite the potential impact on his own playing time. Wilson, on the other hand, remains focused on his performance on the field and is not concerned about losing targets in the passing game.
As the most-targeted player in the NFL, Wilson has been a key asset for the Jets this season, with 41 receptions for 399 yards and three touchdowns. Williams, on the other hand, has contributed 10 catches for 145 yards so far this season.
While trade rumors continue to swirl around Williams and Wilson, the Jets are maintaining their stance on keeping Wilson on the team for the foreseeable future. The coming weeks will be crucial for both players as they navigate the evolving landscape of the Jets’ wide receiver corps.
