New York Jets berencana memperkuat lini penerima mereka dengan mendatangkan wide receiver veteran, Tim Patrick. Keputusan ini diambil setelah sebelumnya menambah pemain muda Omar Cooper di babak pertama draft NFL.
Menurut laporan Rich Cimini dari ESPN.com, Jets telah menyetujui kontrak dengan Patrick. Ia dikabarkan telah melakukan kunjungan ke markas tim pada Rabu (17/7).
Patrick menyelesaikan musim lalu bersama Jacksonville Jaguars. Ia mencatatkan 15 tangkapan untuk 187 yard dan tiga touchdown. Sebelumnya, ia menghabiskan enam musim bersama Denver Broncos sebelum pindah ke Jacksonville. Sayangnya, cedera serius—termasuk robekan ACL dan Achilles—memaksanya absen selama dua musim (2022-2023). Pada 2024, ia sempat bermain untuk Detroit Lions, mencatatkan 33 tangkapan, 394 yard, dan tiga touchdown.
Catatan impresif Patrick datang saat ia berkarier di Denver. Dalam enam musim bersama Broncos, ia mengumpulkan 143 tangkapan, 2.009 yard, dan 12 touchdown. Kontribusinya diharapkan dapat melengkapi lini serangan Jets yang sudah memiliki Garrett Wilson, Adonai Mitchell, Isaiah Williams, Arian Smith, dan Irv Charles.
Keterlibatan Jets dalam mendatangkan Patrick juga tak lepas dari peran Darren Mougey, General Manager Jets, yang sebelumnya bekerja di Denver saat Patrick masih aktif di sana. Selain itu, Aaron Glenn, pelatih kepala Jets, pernah menjadi Koordinator Pertahanan Lions pada 2024—saat Patrick bermain untuk tim tersebut.
