The Ringer’s Bill Simmons echoed the sentiment of many New England Patriots fans Wednesday with his reaction to the J.C. Jackson trade.
The Patriots reportedly agreed to acquire Jackson from the Los Angeles Chargers as part of a deal that includes a swap of late-round draft picks. The Bolts reportedly agreed to pay the bulk of Jackson’s remaining 2023 salary, an indication of just how much the cornerback fell out of favor in LA.
Simmons took to X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, shortly after the news broke and reposted a tweet from NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport.
