Why is Haason Reddick holding out on the New York Jets, and how much is it costing him?

Ongoing Contract Situation

Haason Reddick is in the middle of a contract holdout with the New York Jets. Although, the two sides are reportedly not far apart on money, Reddick is seeking a fully guaranteed contract while the Jets are offering incentives, which could be difficult to negotiate. He skipped the team's most recent mandatory minicamp to make his point known to get a new contract.

Financial Impact

Reddick is set to earn $3.986 million in the final year of his three-year, $16.6 million contract he signed with the Carolina Panthers back in 2021. If he prolongs his holdout through the duration of training camp, he could lose out on $498,632.

If he were to hold out during the regular season, he would lose $562,500 for each game he misses. While many top NFL players have ended their holdouts before the regular season begins, it is possible Reddick could be willing to miss the beginning of the season in order to get what he wants on his next contract. The Jets have said they believe a deal will get done and Reddick will be with the team for the regular season. However, it remains up in the air at the moment. - [Source](https://jetswire.usatoday.com/2023/06/15/jets-haason-reddick-contract-holdout-training-camp/)
