Haason Reddicks Jets tenure is finally set to begin: Ready to get rolling

After six months of waiting, edge rusher Haason Reddick was finally back in the Jets’ headquarters again Monday. Reddick ended his holdout after he and the team agree to a reworked contract that will pay him the rest of his base salary and gives him a chance to recoup some of the nearly $12 million he lost in fines during the holdout. “He’s fired up,” interim coach Jeff Ulbrich said.“Ready to get rolling with us.

And can’t wait to get to know him better and play football with him.He’s a great player.” Ulbrich did not have any updates on any of the players injured in Sunday’s loss.
