Everyone was surprised by Tuesday’s news that the Jets had traded cornerback Sauce Gardner to the Colts. Including Sauce Gardner. Via Rich Cimini of ESPN.com, Sauce Gardner and his brother/agent Allante Gardner has “no inkling” that a trade was coming. They found out about it at 12:15 p.m. ET on Tuesday. Sauce received a phone call from coach Aaron Glenn. Said Allante Gardner, via Cimini: “I called Ahmad. He’s in great spirits. I told him this is a business decision and he understands that. The Jets made a business decision. They couldn’t turn it down and Ahmad deserves to be on a winning football team.” Sauce now is. From 1-7 to 7-2. From a perennial non-contender to a team that has entered the Super Bowl window.
