The Jets made one more trade right before the deadline buzzer on Tuesday.

New York acquired cornerback Ja’Sir Taylor from the Chargers for a conditional seventh-round pick in the 2028 draft.

The 26-year-old Taylor has played the entirety of his four-year NFL career with the Chargers, recording one interception and 84 tackles.

This season, the Wake Forest product has played in nine games (no starts) and has made eight tackles. He’s played just 3 percent of the team’s defensive snaps, significantly lower than the 49 percent he played in 2023.

The move comes hours after the Jets shipped two-time All-Pro corner Sauce Gardner to the Colts in a shocking blockbuster deal that saw two first-round picks and receiver Adonai Mitchell come back to the Meadowlands.

Shortly after that, the Jets sent defensive tackle Quinnen Williams to the Cowboys for a 2027 first-rounder, a 2026 second-rounder and defensive lineman Mazi Smith.
