Less than five months ago, the Jets dealt Sheldon Richardson to the Seahawks. With the offseason approaching, could the free agent defensive lineman rejoin his former organization? Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News thinks so.
In a recent column, the reporter discusses the Jets’ free agency plans. Mehta noted that Richardson is looking to test the market in pursuit of a big payday, and he adds that the defensive lineman still has a soft spot for the Jets organization. If it makes sense financially, Mehta believes the Jets would welcome back Richardson with open arms. Of course, the Jets will have plenty of competition for the former first-rounder, as he adds that the Seahawks are interested in re-signing the impending free agent.
The Jets traded the 27-year-old to Seattle in early September for a 2018 second-round pick and wideout Jermaine Kearse. Richardson went on to have a bit of an underwhelming season with the Seahawks, as he compiled 44 tackles and a career-low one sack. However, the defensive end isn’t far removed from a 2014 campaign where he compiled eight sacks and was named to the Pro Bowl.
Why?
2014 at this point is kinda far removed…
2014 isn’t that far removed?
He’s a bum
I want him back in Seattle. Especially after we traded Kearse for him! Save $ in letting Graham walk and re-sign Richardson.
