Haason Reddick, a defensive end for the New York Jets, recently made headlines when he was absent from the team's mandatory minicamp. This absence led to speculation about his unhappiness with not receiving a contract extension. However, Reddick took to social media to advise fans not to believe rumors about his contract status.
Reddick, who was traded from the Philadelphia Eagles earlier this offseason, has recorded over 10 sacks in each of the last four seasons. He is seeking a contract worth over $28 million annually, which is above his current contract value of $15 million.
