Rapoport: Winless Jets Expected To Shop Michael Carter II Over Breece Hall as Injuries Complicate Market

Injuries plus contract status are shaping the Jets’ trade calculus before the Nov. 4 deadline.

Overview

  • At 0-6, the Jets are being viewed as sellers as teams call about potential deals ahead of the trade deadline.
  • NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports cornerback Michael Carter II is more likely to be moved than headline name Breece Hall, with pass rusher Jermaine Johnson II also mentioned as a possibility.
  • Carter is in the concussion protocol and was ruled out for Week 7, and he remains under team control through 2027 after a reported multi-year extension of about $30 million.
  • Hall has drawn trade interest and briefly left Week 7 with an apparent leg or ankle injury before returning, and he is set to reach free agency after the season.
  • With the deadline falling after Week 9, there is limited time for injured players to recover and for first-year GM Darren Mougey’s regime to decide on extracting draft capital.
