Will Jets’ Dalvin Cook, Carl Lawson be moved by Tuesday’s trade deadline?

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. – Dalvin Cook and Carl Lawson are surprised and frustrated by how little they’re being used by the Jets. Their names have come up in trade rumors and neither sounds as if they would be opposed to being moved.

The NFL trade deadline is Tuesday. The Jets already dealt Mecole Hardman, who played sparingly, back to Kansas City last week. It wouldn’t be surprising if Cook and Lawson were on different teams next week. Lawson might have more of a market since teams are always looking for edge rushers.

Both players said they haven’t asked for a trade, but they also seemed open to one.

“I’ve always wanted to help the Jets win,” Lawson said after practice Thursday. “I’ve always wanted to be the best version of myself for a team. But at the end of the day, I do want to be a football player, I do want to produce and I do want to help because I’m a football player not a cheerleader.”

Being in trade rumors is new for Cook, a four-time Pro Bowl running back with the Vikings. Like Lawson, he just wants to play.

“It’s all different for me,” Cook said. “But it’s something I can’t control, having my name floating around in trade rumors. Might be a good thing, may be a bad thing. You never know.”

Cook said he would not go to general manager Joe Douglas and request a change of address. However, he didn’t rule out sitting down with his agent and Douglas to figure out what’s “best for everybody.”

But Cook said he’s not thinking about it because would be “clouding my mind” and right now he’s only focusing on getting ready for the next game.

“I’m not going to JD’s office to tell him I want to be somewhere else or anything like that,” Cook said. “I’m just sharpening my iron, [getting] ready to go and I’m going to let the business side handle that.”

“As a player and as a man, I prepare myself, I work my tail off and I just want the situation to be best for both sides,” Cook added.
