Defenseman Haason Reddick has officially requested a trade from the New York Jets, according to multiple reports Monday, after failing to secure a new deal with the team that acquired him just four months ago.

Reddick was traded from the Philadelphia Eagles to the Jets in April for a conditional third-round pick in the 2026 draft. He showed up for his physical and initial news conference with the Jets, but did not show up for mandatory minicamp and has not appeared in training camp.

Reddick, who turns 30 in September, is in the final year of his contract and is seeking a long-term deal. He had also tried to get a raise from the Eagles before the trade.

Reddick has recorded 50.5 sacks over the past four seasons and is expected to make $14.25 million this season.

By comparison, new Giants defensive back Brian Burns (traded to New York from the Carolina Panthers in the offseason) has 38.5 sacks over the past four seasons and signed a five-year, $141 million contract ($28.2 million per season). Burns is four years younger.

New York sees Reddick as a starter at defensive end after trading away John Franklin-Myers to the Broncos in April and losing Bryce Huff to the Eagles in free agency.

A first-round pick (13th overall) out of Arizona in 2017, Reddick was a two-time Pro Bowl selection with 410 tackles, 99 quarterback hits, 58 sacks and 16 forced fumbles in 114 games (81 starts) with the Cardinals (2017-20), Panthers (2021) and Eagles.
