The Jets’ Mecole Hardman experiment is coming to an early end. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, New York is trading Hardman back to the Chiefs in a deal involving a late-round draft swap.
New York will send Hardman and a 2025 seventh-round pick to Kansas City for a 2025 sixth-round pick, Schefter reports.
Hardman had only joined the Jets this offseason after spending the previous four seasons in Kansas City. In 2023, he has one reception on three targets and had featured on just 10% of New York’s offensive snaps.
