ESPN’s Chris Mortensen is close with agent Jimmy Sexton. He gets a lot of info from him.
Sexton represents Rex Ryan and Tony Sparano.
Mortensen was asked by a fan on twitter – “Are the Jets looking at any FAs or trades to replace Wayne Hunter at RT?”
“Yes,” Mortensen responded. “No longer in denial.”
If Mortensen says it, with his strong connections on the Jets’ coaching staff through Sexton, go with it.
