Yannick Ngakoue tries to stir up trade talk via Twitter
Yannick Ngakoue is not happy with the Jacksonville Jaguars and is even resorting to social media to try drumming up trade interest.
The 25-year-old defensive lineman received a franchise tag from the Jags but is hoping for a trade. He’s been tweeting his side of his issues with Jacksonville the last few days. Ngakoue has even concluded that it is time to move on and also criticized the team for their poor handling of negotiations.
Let’s agree to disagree . Why hold a man from taking care of his family. It’s obvious my time is up in my current situation. Let’s both move on @Jaguars https://t.co/XvGcSAQQkH

Ngakoue believes the Jaguars did not handle contract negotiations with him well last year, which led Ngakoue to hold out at the start of training camp. He ended up getting eight sacks in 15 games for Jacksonville last season and is now looking for a trade. Several teams reportedly have interest in him.
