Elijah Moore Won't Play vs. Broncos; Saleh Says Jets Won't Trade WR Despite Request

According to reports, Moore will not play in the Jets' game against the Broncos on Sunday.

One day after Ian Rapoport reported that Moore requested a trade, he was at practice on Friday.

The Ole Miss product won't play against the Broncos. The team has no intention of trading Moore, he said.

According to Rich Cimini, the Jets sent the wide receiver home for personal reasons.

According to Cimini, New York is not considering trading the 22-year-old even though they believe it would be best if he left the facility for a day to let his emotions calm down.

If I say what I really want to say, I will be the selfish guy. I'm grateful! It was a huge blessing. I have always wanted all of it. Butter for me, but I'll be strong. I will just keep quiet. I also don't understand.

The Jets are one of the pleasant surprises of the season so far.

They are 4-2 after victories over the Packers and Dolphins. The Packers were held to 10 points by the Green Bay defense.

Against the Dolphins and Packers, the offense didn't air it out as much while protecting leads. Wilson still offered support for Moore while pointing that out.

Wilson said that he is not trying to avoid him because he is a great player. I'm just following my progressions. We talk about routes and how we can clean up. Being patient and trusting is what it is. We won the game and I only had 10 completions. I hope he knows he's special to us.

Brown thought he would be better off somewhere else.

It seems as if Moore will stay with the Jets, and his presence could help them compete in games they are trailing and need to turn to the aerial attack more than they have in the past.

Even though he won't play in Denver, they will still play the New England and Buffalo Bills after the Broncos game.
