Jets Neared $48.5 Million Free Agency Heist

If the most recent social media speculations are to be believed, the New York Jets almost garnered even more attention this summer.

Last week, cornerback Sauce Gardner was hosting a Twitter Space that included several NFL players while participating in some casual Twitter conversation.

From that interaction, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic offered some delicious information that he thinks "flew under the radar."

"At one point Chauncey [Gardner-Johnson] and Sauce alluded to, which kind of flew under the radar I thought, alluded to how.

They thought Chauncey was close to signing with the Jets at one point," Rosenblatt said on "The Can't Wait Podcast" on Thursday, July 13.

I'm not sure if I heard it correctly, but it sounded like Chauncey was also attempting to sign Darius Slay because the [Philadelphia] Eagles were about to release Darius when he ca

where he was planning to make an attempt to get Darius to accompany him to the Jets.

I've never heard anything about the Jets being particularly keen on trying to sign Chauncey. 

The next James Bond picture won't be directed by Sam Mendes. THANK YOU !
