A former member of the Philadelphia Eagles was one of the most talked about players in football despite not playing a snap.

Two-time Pro Bowler Haason Reddick is currently a member of the New York Jets, but that likely won’t last much longer. There’s a strong chance he never plays a down for the Jets. He perseveres with no end in sight.

The 2024 National Football League trade deadline is approaching and 33rd Team’s Jeff Diamond predicted the Jets will trade Reddick to the Detroit Lions.

“Now we’re back to the Jets, who failed to get Haason Reddick to report after trading a conditional 2026 third-round pick to the Eagles in April,” Diamond said. “The 30-year-old Reddick wants his $15 million-per-year contract extended after five consecutive double-digit sack seasons (including 11 last year in Philadelphia). He was a Pro Bowl player the last two seasons and is a former first-person player. Round pick by the Arizona Cardinals.

“Many teams need help overwhelming the passer, including the Lions, who have Super Bowl aspirations. However, the pass defense could be their downfall, as it was last season. Detroit ranks 27th in pass defense and has just 11 sacks (tied). 19.) in five games, Aidan Hutchinson has 6.5 sacks and no other Lion has reached two sacks… The Lions have plenty of cap space this year (more than $40 million) and in 2025 to add to Reddick’s base salary of $14 .25 million to extend his contract.

There’s no end in sight to the Reddick saga, but it’s also not the first time the Lions have been mentioned.
