Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson addressed trade speculation Wednesday, confirming he has not requested a move before the November 10 deadline.
Wilson's comments followed a heated sideline moment during Sunday's loss to the Dolphins. He acknowledged his name surfacing in trade rumors is simply NFL business, especially after teammates Sauce Gardner and Jermaine Johnson — fellow 2022 first-round picks — were dealt within the past year.
The 24-51 record since Wilson arrived clearly weighs on him. "Yeah, I want to be here. I want to win games," he said. He admitted loving New York does not surpass his love of winning, though he remains hopeful despite waning optimism.
The Jets hold three first-round selections in 2027, positioning them to accelerate a turnaround. Wilson's continued presence would strengthen that rebuilding effort, yet his patience shows visible strain after another deflating defeat.
Mickey's Angle: Wilson staying put stabilizes the Jets' offense, but bettors should monitor whether this locker room frustration translates to flat performances down the stretch.
