Jets WR Garrett Wilson Addresses Trade Rumors

The wide receiver was rumored to wanting to request a trade out of New York after four-plus seasons.

Garrett Wilson desires to stay with the Jets, dismissing any rumors of him wanting to be traded ahead of the deadline. However, he is deeply dissatisfied with the team's performance. "I want to be here, man," Wilson stated on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. "I want to win games, and that's the one thing we've been missing on here."

The Jets are currently 2-5 on the season, having suffered a recent loss to the Miami Dolphins. During that game, Wilson only had two catches for 26 yards and was targeted just three times. The 26-year-old has recorded 444 receiving yards on 37 catches, with three touchdowns on the season. Wilson was visibly frustrated on the sidelines during Sunday's game, following a similarly disappointing outing in the previous week's loss to the New England Patriots.

Wilson expressed his main frustration lies in "winning and losing," stating, "Throughout my experience, when things go right, I tend to have a part in that. And when it doesn't, it seems avoidable." Despite his frustration, Wilson remains committed to helping the team succeed, emphasizing his desire to make an impact and contribute to the franchise.
