Eagles, Commanders and Chiefs could call Jets based on latest trade rumor

Wilson had a down season in 2025, but that was because of injury.

In the three years prior, the former No. 10 overall pick showed he can be a No. 1 wide receiver after three straight seasons with over 1,000 yards despite a poor quarterback situation in two of those three campaigns.

If given a better situation under center, Wilson could be propelled to new heights.

Why Jets could trade Wilson

Should the Jets trade Wilson?

No, because New York is likely to be bringing in a young quarterback, either this year or next, and the team needs all the help it can get for that player. Right now, New York needs to add a wide receiver, not subtract one.

But nobody thought the Jets would deal Quinnen Williams and Sauce Gardner before the trade deadline last year, yet those two deals happened. The trade of Jermaine Johnson was relatively surprising, also.

As a result, nothing should be considered impossible in New York.

Eagles, Commanders, Chiefs could have interest

All three teams have or could have a need at wide receiver.

When it comes to the Eagles, trade rumors have swirled around A.J. Brown the entire offseason and if they do end up trading him, a replacement is needed.

In Kansas City, the Chiefs are lacking depth behind Rashee Rice. The jury is still out on Xavier Worthy after a disappointing 2025 campaign and the depth behind those two isn't great.

The Commanders still haven't addressed their need for an upgrade across from Terry McLaurin and there's no telling if Brandon Aiyuk is ever coming to Washington. Even if he does, relying on him as a No. 2 is risky.

All three teams will almost certainly explore their options in the 2026 NFL Draft, but if nothing comes to fruition, a call to the Jets could be the next order of business.
