Frustrated Receiver Elijah Moore Asks Jets for Trade While Fans on Twitter Fight Over Where He’s Headed
Follow Us
Wide receiver Elijah Moore has requested a trade from the New York Jets. The 22-year-old receiver seems to be frustrated by his lack of involvement in the Jets’ offense. Currently standing at 4-2, the Jets most recently beat the Green Bay Packers 27-10. The receiver’s tweet after the game sent out some mixed signals. The tweet was later deleted.
More drama ensued when Moore was excused from practice on Thursday due to a personal issue. Even prior to his zero-target game against the Packers, the receiver’s numbers have been consistently low. Week five’s single catch on four targets and 15 passes for 192 yards in the first four games seemed rather low.

While the Jets‘ head coach Robert Saleh insists that he has no problems with Moore, the wide receiver’s cryptic tweets suggest otherwise. There seems to be no indication of the team moving ahead with the request.
Coach Saleh may have his hands full this season. Apart from Moore, receiver Denzel Mims has also requested a trade from the Jets while voicing his frustration regarding his role in the team.

While Moore’s return to the Jets game against the Broncos on Sunday is doubtful, Mims might find himself more useful on-field. While no official announcement has been made regarding the trade of Elijah Moore, Jets fans will hope to keep the receiver around while fans of other teams remain hopeful for a trade.
