Chargers trade CB Ja'Sir Taylor to Jets

The New York Jets traded cornerback Sauce Gardner to the Indianapolis Colts on Tuesday. Shortly after, the Jets acquired cornerback Ja'Sir Taylor from the Los Angeles Chargers in exchange for a 2028 conditional seventh-round draft pick. The specific conditions of the pick have not been disclosed. Taylor, a sixth-round pick in 2022, has started 11 of 57 NFL games, recording 84 tackles, an interception, 14 passes defensed, and a fumble recovery. These moves come as part of a broader reshuffling for the Jets, who also traded running back Michael Carter to the Philadelphia Eagles and defensive lineman Quinnen Williams in separate deals. The impact of these transactions on the Jets' defense will be tested in their upcoming game against the Cleveland Browns.
