NFL’s lone holdout, LB Haason Reddick, not ruled out by Jets

Haason Reddick

No-show Haason Reddick, the NFL’s final player holdout entering the regular season, was not at the team facility for practice with the New York Jets on Thursday.

But with four nights until gameday, Jets head coach Robert Saleh isn’t putting to rest the possibility Reddick might play at San Francisco on Monday night.

“Not ruling him out yet. It’s feasible. I mean, the opponent we’re playing just had two guys show up to practice,” Saleh said Thursday. “You trust that your veterans who know how to do things the right way will get themselves ready to play.”

Reddick is due to make $14.25 million in the final season of his three-year, $45 million contract and is looking for a long-term deal. He has recorded 50.5 sacks over the past four seasons and was penciled in as a starter at one of the Jets’ edge positions.

Jets general manager Joe Douglas said he hasn’t spoken to Reddick since April 1, when the latter visited the Jets’ facility. Douglas noted that he also hasn’t had any recent talks with Reddick’s representation “but the phone lines are open.”

The 49ers reached contract agreements with two late arrivals in wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk and left tackle Trent Williams. Aiyuk attended most of training camp and preseason practices but didn’t participate. Williams skipped all offseason and preseason workouts with the team out of frustration with a six-year contract he completed the first three seasons of because it was devoid of guaranteed money for 2024, 2025 and 2026.

49ers general manager John Lynch addressed both deals and each player reported in time to participate in practice this week. They’re expected to be on the field in Santa Clara on Monday night when the Jets visit for the regular-season opener.

But there’s no indication Reddick, acquired in a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles, intends to blink.
