The Jets may add a future first-ballot Hall of Famer to its wide receiving corps when the lockout is lifted. Gang Green has legitimate interest in soon-to-be free agent Randy Moss, according to sources.
The uncertainty surrounding the makeup of the team’s wide receiving corps has generated plenty of speculation in the past few months. Santonio Holmes, Braylon Edwards and Brad Smith will all be unrestricted free agents if the 2010 free agency rules aren’t reinstated.
Although the organization has maintained that it would like to keep both Holmes and Edwards, it may not be financially feasible to sign two high-caliber wideouts to long-term deals. Holmes previously stated his desire to take a wait-and-see approach with negotiations. Edwards recently expressed his desire to play for the Jets perhaps at a slightly discounted rate.
Last month, there were conflicting reports over Gang Green’s level of interest in Moss. Earlier this month, Pro Football Talk reported that it heard rumblings that the 34-year-old wide receiver was on the Jets’ radar.
The Jets will have more than a cursory interest in Moss if Holmes or Edwards doesn’t return, per sources.
