Jets reportedly plan to grant WR Denzel Mims' trade request

The New York Jets are open to dealing Denzel Mims and plan on granting the trade request of the wide receiver, according to Connor Hughes of SNY. That doesn't mean a trade is imminent, though.

New York reportedly likes having Mims as a part of its wide receiving corps and won't "give him away." It'll take a lot for the Jets to part with their 2020 second-round pick, despite Mims catching only 31 passes in his first two seasons with the team.

The lack of production from Mims coupled with the Jets' high expectations of a return in a trade could make a deal difficult to piece together. So it's not too surprising that the receiver was back at practice Friday morning, less than 24 hours after his request, working with special teams.
