We wrote about Haason Reddick and the Eagles, discussing a potential extension or the All-Pro pass rusher taking his talents elsewhere.
Adam Schefter reports that Philadelphia is trading Reddick to the New York Jets.
Reddick is one of four players with 50+ sacks since 2020.
Jets were in market for pass rusher, tried with Clowney…so they go and get a premier guy. https://t.co/toXKoSLwTm

Reddick finished the year with 11.0 sacks and 38 tackles in 17 regular-season games, and he recorded double-digit sacks for the fourth consecutive season, leading his team in that category and tying for 15th in the NFL.
Had Nolan Smith shown that he was ready to be an elite pass rusher, the idea would have been to cut or trade Reddick, saving the Eagles $11 million after the dead money allotment.
Here’s an instant trade analysis with the move set to be completed.
Reddick finished the year with 11.0 sacks and 38 tackles in 17 regular-season games, and he recorded double-digit sacks for the fourth consecutive season, leading his team in that category and tying for 15th in the NFL.
Outside of the sacks, though, Reddick’s numbers were poor by his standards.
His 38 tackles were the second-lowest mark of his career, and he didn’t force or recover a fumble after forcing five and recovering three last season. His snap share (74 percent) remained identical, indicating the drop-off wasn’t due to a lack of opportunities but mismanagement from coaches.
He’ll now swap teams with Bryce Huff.
