Buccaneers' Haason Reddick: Dealing with ankle sprain
Rotowire
Head coach Todd Bowles told reporters Monday that Reddick is dealing with an ankle sprain as well as some knee soreness, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
The 31-year-old underwent an MRI earlier in the week on his ankle, which appears to be the main issue affecting him. Additionally, Bowles told reporters that Reddick's knee "will be OK" despite some lingering soreness. The Buccaneers have a Week 9 bye, which should allow Reddick to get some much-needed rest. His next opportunity to return to action will come in Week 10 when the Bucs face the Patriots.

Buccaneers' Haason Reddick: Officially out for Week 8
Rotowire
Reddick (ankle/knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup versus New Orleans, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Reddick hurt his ankle and knee this past Monday against Detroit, and head coach Todd Bowles said a few days later that the linebacker is going to "miss some time." As such, it's so surprise that Reddick has been ruled out for Week 8, and he might not be ready to return even after the team's Week 9 bye. Anthony Nelson and Chris Braswell could log more defensive snaps at linebacker while Reddick is sidelined.

Buccaneers' Haason Reddick: Sidelined with knee issue
Rotowire
Head coach Todd Bowles told reporters Wednesday that Reddick (knee/ankle) will "miss some time," Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
The veteran edge rusher is still awaiting the MRI results showing the severity of his knee and ankle injuries, but it appears he'll likely miss time regardless. Reddick appeared in all seven of the Buccaneers' games prior to these injuries, recording 16 total tackles, including 1.5 sacks, and one pass defended. If he's sidelined for the Week 8 matchup against the Saints as expected, Anthony Nelson will likely to get more snaps with Tampa Bay's first-team defense.

Buccaneers' Haason Reddick: Undergoing MRI
Rotowire
Head coach Todd Bowles said Tuesday that Reddick will undergo an MRI on his knee and ankle to determine the severity of the injuries, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Reddick sustained the injuries in the fourth quarter of Monday's 24-9 loss to the Lions. The MRI results are expected Wednesday, which will provide clarity on his recovery timeline. Anthony Nelson and Chris Braswell would be the top candidates to move into a starting role at outside linebacker opposite Yaya Diaby if Reddick is sidelined.

Buccaneers' Haason Reddick: Questionable to return Monday
Rotowire
Reddick (knee/ankle) is questionable to return to Monday night's contest against the Lions, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Reddick was landed on by Lions offensive tackle Penei Sewell in the fourth quarter, potentially suffering both knee and ankle injuries as a result. Considering the linebacker exited so late in the game, it seems unlikely Reddick will be able to return. In his absence, Anthony Nelson is a top candidate to see an increased workload with Tampa Bay's defense.

Buccaneers' Haason Reddick: Working through foot injury
Rotowire
Reddick was a limited participant in Thursday's practice due to a foot injury.
The 2017 first-rounder likely picked up the injury during Tampa Bay's 23-20 win over Atlanta this past Sunday, when he logged three tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, while playing 60 of 76 defensive snaps. Reddick will have two more chances to practice in full and avoid an injury tag heading into the Bucs' Week 2 road game against the Texans on Monday.

Jets' Haason Reddick: Underperforms with Jets
Rotowire
Reddick tallied 14 total tackles (nine solo), including 1.0 sacks, defended one pass and forced one fumble over 10 games in 2024.
Reddick's first season in New York didn't go according to plan, as he was traded from the Eagles to the Jets in late March due to a contract dispute. He then held out of the Jets' training camp and the first seven games of the season while negotiating an extension with his new team. The Temple product underwhelmed upon his return in 2024, recording the fewest tackles and tying the lowest sack total of his career. Now set to hit unrestricted free agency this summer, Reddick likely cost himself significant earnings by holding out and underperforming in 2024. He will aim to return to his usual form as one of the NFL's top edge rushers in 2025, whether he remains with the Jets or signs elsewhere.

Jets' Haason Reddick: Cleared to play

Reddick missed Wednesday's practice, got in limited work Thursday, and then practiced fully Friday. In six games since ending his holdout, Reddick has just eight tackles (five solo), including 0.5 sacks, and just one QB hit. Reddick has made a minimal impact for the Jets' defense.

Reddick (illness) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
The pass rusher returned to the field after missing Wednesday's session with the illness. The setback appears to have been temporary, though Reddick's status Friday will be worth monitoring. The former Eagle has eight tackles (five solo), including 0.5 sacks, in six games with the Jets this season.

Reddick has sat out of the first seven games of the season in the hopes of pressuring the Jets to agree to a new contract, and after coming to an agreement with his team Sunday, it appears he's now on track to make his 2024 debut in Week 8.

Jets' Haason Reddick: Brings end to holdout
Rotowire
Reddick reached agreement Sunday with the Jets on an adjusted contract for the 2024 season, bringing an end to his holdout, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Acquired from the Eagles in late March for a conditional 2026 third-round draft pick, Reddick has been away from the Jets since the beginning of training camp while he's been in pursuit of a new deal. Reddick, who is in the final season of a three-year, $45 million deal, accrued over $12 million in fines for missing workouts, practices and the Jets' first six games of the season, but New York has agreed to give him a bonus to cover those fines with the understanding that the 30-year-old will honor the rest of his contract, per Schefter. Reddick's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said that his client will continue to work toward a long-term extension with the Jets, though any new contract will surely be contingent on how the edge rusher performs over the rest of the season. Reddick will remain out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, but he will report to the team facility Monday and could make his Jets debut as soon as Week 8 at New England.

Jets' Haason Reddick: Deal not imminent
Rotowire
Reddick (contract dispute) will miss a second consecutive game Sunday against the Titans, and the defensive end doesn't appear to be close to working out a new contract with the Jets, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Reddick has yet to report to the Jets since the start of training camp and has now racked up north of $8 million in fines, unearned salary and bonus forfeiture while he holds out for a new deal. Given that he hasn't practiced all season and remains in a stalemate with the Jets, Reddick appears safe to rule out through Week 3, when New York will host the Patriots in a Thursday night game.

Jets' Haason Reddick: Likely out Monday
Rotowire
Reddick (contract dispute) is not expected to play in Monday's game in San Francisco, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
No surprise here, as Reddick is still holding out while his agent and the team work on a new contract. There will seemingly need to be some time for the veteran lineman to transition into game shape once a deal is ultimately made. In his assumed absence, Micheal Clemons, Will McDonald and Takkarist McKinley are candidates to see increased snaps.

Jets' Haason Reddick: Remains away from team
Rotowire
Coach Robert Saleh said Tuesday that the Jets still have no new updates on the status of Reddick, who remains away from the team as Monday's regular-season opener against the 49ers approaches, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.
Saleh said if Reddick shows up to play Week 1, the team could still opt for him to suit up, if he's deemed to be in game shape after having missed all of training camp. The veteran pass-rusher has already accumulated $2.05 million in fines for missing training camp, per Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic, in addition to penalties for missing mandatory minicamp and forfeiting his workout bonus. If Reddick's holdout continues into the regular season, however, he'll be subjected to massive fines of $791,666 per missed game.

Jets' Haason Reddick: Still deadlocked
Rotowire
Reddick still has not reported to the Jets' facility as of Thursday, but general manager Joe Douglas has no plans to trade him, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Reddick is still holding out for a new contract and has continued to be fined daily for not reporting to training camp. The veteran edge rusher is the 20th highest-paid player at his position but feels like he deserves to be compensated at a higher level. The Temple product still presumably has a chance to suit up Week 1 if he decides to show up in the next few days, but the window is rapidly closing.

Jets' Haason Reddick: Jets won't consider trade
Rotowire
GM Joe Douglas released a statement Monday announcing that New York "will not trade" Reddick after his request to be moved.
Douglas' statement also confirms "[Reddick] will continue to be fined per the CBA if he does not report." Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports that the Jets made a contract offer to Reddick, who has one year remaining on his current deal, prior acquiring him via trade from the Eagles, but that the veteran pass rusher turned down that offer. Reddick has since held out of the offseason program and training camp, culminating in his trade request Monday. Unless one side becomes willing to budge, it appears that Reddick's holdout will continue indefinitely.
