Jets rumors: Darrelle Revis must attend workouts to collect bonus


There has been speculation throughout the offseason that the New York Jets could look to trade All-Pro cornerback Darrelle Revis. However, Revis remains on the Jets’ roster, and the team plans on enforcing language in the cornerback’s contract which requires him to attend New York’s offseason conditioning program in order to collect a bonus, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN New York.


While Revis wants to be paid like one of the top defensive players in the NFL – a request the Jets don’t seem to be in a hurry to fulfill – he won’t be able to hold out through the beginning of workouts unless he wants to forfeit $3 million in bonuses.

Revis continues to rehab his surgically-repaired knee with his personal trainer in Arizona. The veteran has said he’d prefer to remain with the Jets, but that he also is seeking a huge contract extension.

New York likely isn’t willing to meet these demands, leading many to speculate of Revis’ potential trade. However, the Jets haven’t gotten the offers they reportedly were seeking for Revis, and as a result he remains on their roster.
