As the Jets continue to hover around playoff contention in the absence of Aaron Rodgers, New York made a push to acquire wide receiver Mike Evans from the Buccaneers and wide receiver Davante Adams from the Raiders ahead of Tuesday’s trade deadline, according to a report from Brian Costello of the New York Post.
Ultimately, the Jets stood pat at the deadline, but it wasn’t for a lack of trying.
Jets general manager Joe Douglas’s inquired about both big-name pass catchers, but the respective teams were unwilling to trade them.
