Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson becomes eligible for a contract extension after this season. He is signed through 2025 with a fifth-year option in 2026.
Wilson wouldn’t say definitely Thursday that he wants to stay with the Jets long term.
“I don’t know, man,” Wilson, a 2022 first-round pick, said, via Rich Cimini of ESPN. “I just go about my day. Wherever my feet are at. If they [extend my contract], that would be a blessing. It would be awesome. I love the Jets. At the end of the day, they were the ones that believed in me. But, yeah, I can’t be worrying about that. I have to go out and finish these three games the right way.”
Cimini reports that a source “wouldn’t be surprised if Wilson asks for a trade” in the offseason.
The Jets have many offseason decisions and who they hire as their new head coach and what they do at the quarterback position likely dictate Wilson’s mindset about his future.
Garrett has not hidden his frustration this season, including in Sunday’s win over the Jaguars when he ranted to receivers coach Shawn Jefferson following a stalled red zone drive in the third quarter.
He has 84 receptions for 933 yards and six touchdowns.
