Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre

On today’s episode, Jason discusses how the New York Jets 'won' the NFL Trade Deadline by trading off their two biggest defensive stars - Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams - for a bevy of picks in the upcoming 2026 and 2027 NFL Drafts. As good as Gardner and Williams are, the Jets are still lacking as the game's most important position: Quarterback. By taking a step back in the short-term, the Jets have set themselves up to potentially secure their long-term franchise quarterback.  Follow Jason on Twitter and Instagram.
