As the league gears up for the Nov. 10 deadline, there will be several star players who'll have their names thrown into the rumor mill. One of those names could end up being Jets star wideout Garrett Wilson, especially as his frustrations with the offense appeared to boil over on the sideline during Sunday's loss to the Dolphins. Wilson could be seen yelling in a huddle that consisted of Geno Smith and passing-game coordinator Seth Ryan.
The 26-year-old said his anger wasn't directed at Smith and that he was frustrated with the red-zone play-calling. Whatever the reason for the outburst, it does show some possible cracks in Wilson's relationship with the team, which comes in the thick of trade rumor season. Last year, the Jets had a fire sale, shipping away the likes of Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams for future draft capital.
Wilson was notably not among the players shopped, as the Jets viewed him as part of their future, but what if that changes in a year? In the event that New York decides to move off of Wilson this time around, here's a look at three teams that would be more than happy to take him off their hands. NFL on CBS analyst and former Super Bowl champion Russell Wilson was the first to float the possibility of the Chiefs pursuing Wilson on a previous edition of "Set Hut!" and it's hard to disagree with him.
If New York does put Wilson on the block, Kansas City makes a ton of sense as a potential destination. The team has been hit with injuries to its receiver room, with Tyquan Thornton on injured reserve and Rashee Rice (hamstring) sidelined. In the Week 7 loss to Seattle, the offense mustered just three points, and the Chiefs wide receivers combined for six catches for 39 yards.
Garrett Wilson to Chiefs? @DangeRussWilson thinks the Chiefs should trade for Garrett Wilson pic.twitter.com/PRHRrVVLpq Sure, Rice will be back at some point, but Kansas City could use another top-tier weapon as they gear up for another Super Bowl run. More than just what Wilson can do for the Chiefs in 2026, he'd also be a long-term option for the organization that doesn't have a clear go-to option for Patrick Mahomes in the passing game whenever Travis Kelce decides to retire. Wilson would fill those shoes perfectly.
The Niners are another team currently starved for wide receiver help. During Sunday's loss to the Falcons, they barely had any healthy bodies at the receiver position, with Jordan Watkins, Jacob Cowing, and Brandin Cooks seeing the bulk of the snaps. That's because injuries have hit the position group, as Deebo Samuel Jr. and Mike Evans have been sidelined.
