“He needs to grow up” Former NFL coach Rex Ryan launches a scathing attack on Jets WR Elijah Moore for requesting a trade
Jets WR Elijah Moore was not part of the squad as he allegedly handed a transfer request to change his team. This resulted in him being criticized by former Jets coach Rex Ryan.
Ryan did not hold back and stated that Elijah Moore needs to grow up and start playing more in a team that’s doing well this season.
“So Elijah Moore requests a trade after the team has won three straight games,” Rex Ryan stated. “What’s he played, 20 games in the league already? Are you kidding? You know how hard it is to win in this league?”
“Elijah Moore, you need to grow up. I love the Jets. Always been a fan of the Jets. My dad coached there for eight years, I coached there for forever. I’m sorry, but this right here, I’m not a fan of yours.”
Jets HC Robert Saleh informed the media that WR Elijah Moore won’t be a part of the Jets squad due to personal reasons. Elijah Moore wrote a plethora of different cryptic messages on Twitter that helped to find out about his trade demand.
“If I say what I really wanna say…I’ll be the selfish guy…we winning. Grateful! Huge blessing! All I ever wanted. Butter sweet for me em but I’ll be solid. So I’ll just stay quiet. Just know I don’t understand either,’’ Elijah Moore tweeted.
Elijah Moore wasn’t a part of the Jets’ win against the Broncos as the Jets beat the Broncos 16-9. After having a strong rookie season, the Jets WR has since been disappointed.
Elijah Moore was dropped from the in-form Jets team
Elijah Moore was reportedly disappointed for not being a target in the Packers game that the Jets surprisingly won. After that incident, Moore was not seen in the training, although HC Robert Saleh clarified things by saying he was ‘fine’.
“Like everything, it gets to a boiling point,” Robert Saleh said. “He showed his displeasure and we felt like it was just best for him to relax, calm down, take a down, catch your breath and we’ll reconvene at another time.”
After having a stellar rookie season, Moore was not included in the squad a lot, resulting in the WR feel resented. Moore sent out some cryptic tweets regarding the same.
If the Jets WR is to get a trade, then the most rumored destination is the Green Bay Packers as they are struggling with firepower in the offense.
