The complaints about the fines against Haason Reddick focus on three preseason games

The revised Haason-Reddick Treaty He has nearly $2.4 million on his hands as a result of a complaint filed by the NFL Players Association.

PFT has confirmed, after speaking with multiple sources, that the union previously filed a grievance based on a fine equal to a regular-season game check for each preseason game Reddick missed. At $791,667 per week, that’s $2.375 million.

Under the CBA, non-forgivable fines apply only to contracts signed by a player as an unrestricted free agent. The argument is that Reddick signed with the Eagles as a UFA and that his contract was then traded.

The same argument, if successful, would apply to $2 million in fines for missing 40 days of training camp, at $50,000 per day. However, this question is not the subject of the dispute. That means the Jets aren’t willing to forgo those fines.

They are prepared to forego the others if the complaint outweighs them.

The Jets have no position on the complaint. Her goal right now is to make Reddick happy. Since the grievance likely won’t be resolved until after the season, the Jets won’t care about making him happy if the grievance fails.
