  "account": "The NFL trade deadline has passed, and the New York Jets made only one move – trading safety Andre Cisco to the Detroit Lions for a 2029 sixth-round pick. Will McDonald, a fourth-year edge rusher, had expressed his desire to be traded, but no deal came to fruition, keeping him on the New York roster. After the deadline, head coach Aaron Glenn addressed the media, providing insight into how he views the situation. Glenn emphasized that McDonald's pass-rushing ability has never been a question and that he believes McDonald has earned more playing time due to his improvements. Glenn stated that McDonald has addressed his areas of concern, and it is now the coach's responsibility to put him in a position to contribute. McDonald echoed these sentiments, expressing his desire to play and help the team win. This statement marks a significant shift in their working relationship, with the focus now on how the Jets utilize McDonald on Sundays.",
