Trade rumors to New York Jets defensive end Sheldon Richardson are non-stop since before the NFL trade deadline expire. His involvement in these rumors came after the Jets continue to struggle and many believe they will miss the playoff if they will do nothing. And it seems that they've already made a move and talking to the Denver Broncos.
Earlier reports said that the Jets called the Dallas Cowboys before the trade deadline expire to ask if they are interested in Richardson. But the Cowboys appears to reject the offer since the Jets wants a high draft pick in return. And now, rumors are floating that the Broncos might be the best destination for Richardson.
According to Gang Green Nation, though the Broncos have one of the best defenses in the league, it would be best for them if they will let Richardson join them and give a scare to all teams in the NFL. With Vance Walker torn an ACL and his comeback are uncertain and Sylvester Williams becomes a free agent, Richardson will be the perfect answer for this forthcoming dilemma.
Though the 2013 NFL Defensive rookie of the year do make trouble to his life, being suspended by the league for 4 games last year for failing the substance abuse policy and another 1 game this season after his July arrest, there's no doubt that the one-time Pro Bowler is gifted with great talent and has the potential to be a superstar.
In a report by NJ on the latest NFL news, aside from the Cowboys, the Jets also called the Broncos to make a deal for Richardson before the trade deadline but it appears that it's too late. Shopping Richardson gives hints that the Jets are decided not to keep him for their future. Aside from the fact that the Jets have Muhammad Wilkerson and Leonard Williams to man the defensive line, Richardson seems to be dispensable for the team.
Though the trade deadline already expires it doesn't mean that the Broncos will stop pursuing Richardson. The Broncos will try to pursue him after the season or before the 2017 NFL Draft as per stated in the report. The question is what will the Jets get in return?
Will the Denver Broncos be the next home for New York Jets DE Sheldon Richardson next season? Stay tuned for the latest NFL news and update.
