Like Parrish Smith of EPMD, Howie Roseman saw it coming and traded Haason Reddick to the New York Jets last spring for draft picks. Reddick was shipped to the AFC East and never reported after his introductory press conference. He held out for a new contract amid accusations that former GM Joe Douglas and the Jets reneged on an extension.
Reddick’s previous representatives, CAA, reportedly had a restructured contract set with the Jets before the star pass rusher declined to report.

With that news, CAA parted ways with Reddick.
Reddick signed with the Buccaneers during free agency, and he’ll face the Eagles in Week 4. Tampa Bay held its first OTA of the summer on Tuesday, and with the practice not being mandatory, Reddick was a no-show.
Reddick signed a one-year, $14 million deal in the off-season, and in his defense, Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, and Tristan Wirfs were among the prominent Buccaneers also not in attendance.
