Jets next move after Jermaine Johnson trade couldn't be more clear

The New York Jets made one of the first major trades of the 2026 offseason on Thursday, shipping edge Jermaine Johnson II to the Tennessee Titans for defensive tackle T'Vondre Sweat.

In a one-for-one swap, each team got a player they wanted. In the Titans' case, new head coach Robert Saleh lands a player who knows his defensive system, and the Jets get a run-stuffing nose tackle at the heart of their defensive line.

There is one problem for New York now, though. They have a massive hole at edge rusher. It makes their next move all the more obvious.
