Jets trade underperforming WR Mecole Hardman back to Chiefs

The Jets traded wide receiver Mecole Hardman back to the Kansas City Chiefs after he had little production for New York this season.
Hardman will reunite with the Chiefs, where he was part of two Super Bowl championship teams and made the Pro Bowl as a return specialist.
The Chiefs sent a 2025 sixth-round pick to the Jets, while New York got a 2025 seventh-rounder from Kansas City.
Hardman expressed frustration over his lack of involvement in the Jets offense after signing with them in the offseason.
The trade comes as the Chiefs look to bolster their receiver group, which has struggled at times this season.
