While the Chicago Bears made the trade for defensive star Jeffery Simmons with the Tennessee Titans, the team has also been in the news for rumors surrounding other players, such as Khalil Mack, which would mark a reunion for both sides. As all eyes are on the Bears ahead of Tuesday’s trade deadline, this NFL insider goes into a reunion they see happening, but it does not involve Mack.
League insider Josina Anderson would speak about New York Jets cornerback Nahshon Wright, who signed a one-year contract with the franchise in March of this year for $5.5 million. Playing for Chicago last season, Wright had a breakout season, recording five interceptions and eight total individual takeaways, as Anderson mentioned, but she wants to see it happen since his time with the Jets has backfired.
“MEANWHILE: My sentiments on #Jets CB Nahshon Wright and a Bears reunion: Just make it happen already,” Anderson wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “It’d clearly be mutually beneficial. The desire is there. Wright’s time in Florham Park has not gone as planned. Wright has appeared in only 3 games for the #Jets—exclusively on special teams without a single defensive snap.”

“This is a glaring fit or utilization issue considering Wright’s potency in Chicago,” Anderson continued. “Nahshon had a breakout season last year with 5 INTs & led the NFL with 8 total individual takeaways. Wright’s lone Pro Bowl selection (2025) came in the Windy City.”
As Anderson brought up, Wright has not carved out a consistent role with New York, only appearing in three games for the team, which really has only seen him on special teams. At any rate, it remains to be seen if the Bears go after Wright to revitalize his career.
