If past quotes and a lucrative four-year extension can tell us anything, it's that cornerback Sauce Gardner was hoping to stick around the Jets long enough to help the team turn things around. But, if he had to get traded (like he was on Tuesday), it sounds like he’s pretty happy with where he ended up.
Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Gardner detailed where he was and what he was thinking when he got the call from Jets general manager Darren Mougey, as well as how the swap to the Colts lines up pretty perfectly with his aspirations and preferences.
