Report: Jets Have Received Trade Inquiries For CB Dee Milliner

Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports that NFL teams have made trade inquiries about CB Dee Milliner‘s availability following the recent additions the Jets have made at cornerback.

However, Mehta’s sources have said that the Jets told interested teams that Milliner isn’t available at a “drastically discounted price.”

Mehta writes that it’s fair to wonder whether new Jets GM Mike Maccagnan would be willing to trade a player who has dealt with a number of injuries since entering the NFL if the price is right.

Sources have told Mehta that even though the Jets are reluctant to move him right now, a trade at a later point in time has not been ruled out.

Jets have completely revamped their depth at cornerback after signing Darrelle Revis, Antonio Cromartie, and Buster Skrine in recent weeks.

Milliner, 23, still has another two years remaining on his four-year, $12.66 million rookie contract. He’ll make base salaries of $585,000 and $675,000 over the remainder of the agreement.

In 2014, Milliner was limited to appearing in just three games due to a torn Achilles he sustained in October. He recorded six tackles and two pass defenses for the Jets.
