The last few NFL seasons haven\u2019t delivered the results the New York Jets were hoping for. Still, there have been some bright spots \u2014 chief among them, the addition of key talent to the roster. That\u2019s why it\u2019s crucial for the franchise to retain players of Garrett Wilson<\/a> and Sauce Gardner\u2019s caliber as they look to build a promising future.<\/p>\n

In recent months, there have been several high-profile cases where star players were at serious risk of leaving due to unresolved contract situations. That\u2019s why, in the Big Apple, the Jets are looking to get ahead of any potential setbacks.<\/p>\n

Building a competitive roster around Wilson and Gardner<\/a> is a must, and talks about their contract extensions are gradually starting to take shape. While it\u2019s still early in the process, ESPN\u2019s Jeremy Fowler has started to share some details on the situation.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m told they\u2019ve had some preliminary talks, exchange of numbers, had all that fun stuff as far as new deals,\u201d the insider said on SportsCenter on Saturday. \u201cThey\u2019ve got five-to-six weeks to see if they can come to an agreement before training camp.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Sauce<\/p>\n

Sauce Gardner #1 of the New York Jets looks on during warm ups prior to the game against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium on October 20, 2024 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth noting that both the wide receiver and the cornerback have repeatedly expressed their desire to remain in New York for the long haul.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Gardner explained why he didn\u2019t hold out<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not uncommon for contract disputes to reach a point where players choose not to report to training until their situation is resolved \u2014 a move that some view as justified, while others strongly disagree with the approach.<\/p>\n

Gardner\u2019s talent has already earned him two Pro Bowl selections, and he knows his ceiling in the NFL<\/a> is still far from reached. That\u2019s why the former Cincinnati Bearcat has remained committed to staying alongside his teammates \u2014 even without a contract extension in place just yet.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just wanted to show my teammates, my coaches how much I want to win. I want to be part of change in the organization,\u201d the talented cornerback stated via Zack Rosenblatt.<\/p>\n

Garrett Wilson\u2019s current situation<\/p>\n

One of the AFC\u2019s top receivers reportedly questioned his stay with the Jets<\/a> if Aaron Rodgers somehow remained with the team. Since that didn\u2019t happen, the player has decided to continue betting on the Jets.<\/p>\n

Since entering the league, he has recorded over 1,000 yards, so it wouldn\u2019t be surprising to hear that he\u2019s now aiming for a lucrative contract extension\u2014one that reflects his production. It will be a matter of waiting to see how these developments unfold in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
