The Story in 60 Seconds

New York Jets cornerback Nahshon Wright has expressed frustration over his lack of playing time and could potentially be moved ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline. Wright has not played any defensive snaps this season after signing a one-year, $3.5 million contract with the team in free agency. He noted that while he has not requested a trade, he has spoken with the front office about finding the best fit for his career.

Wright lost his opportunity to compete for a starting role after a training camp injury, allowing second-year player Azareye’h Thomas to secure the spot. In other team roster developments, the Jets placed nose tackle T’Vondre Sweat on injured reserve due to a knee injury and signed nose tackle Payton Page to the active roster.
