Probably because he doesn't want to be perceived as one of those guys that overplays the "trade me" card. I would be hesitant about committing long term to a player that's requested to be traded numerous times as he may come off as a malcontent or guy that can't handle adversity. It's fair to the Jets in that they won't be wasting any time incorporating him in their future plans.
