Hasson Reddick will have to make sure his Jets play does the talking

The moronic holdout doesn’t matter now. The Haason Reddick drama doesn’t matter now. 

All that matters now is this for Haason Reddick: Just go get the quarterback. 

You want that big-ticket contract? Just go get the quarterback. 

Reddick declined interview requests Thursday, telling Jets public relations that he wanted to wait until after Sunday’s game at New England. 

Well, then talk with your play and give fans something to talk about other than your showing up seven games into a 2-5 season. Give them something that helps them remember how to cheer. 

“Obviously, being able to get to the quarterback is something that is a game-wrecker,” Tyrod Taylor told The Post, “and I think he has all the capability as he’s shown throughout his career to be able to wreck games, so definitely glad to have him.” 

Reddick has recorded double-digit sacks in each of the past four years and has 58 for his seven-year NFL career. 

You want that $25 million-plus deal? Go get Drake Maye on Sunday and show the Jets you are a young 30. 

Which he did on the practice field Wednesday. 

“It’s gonna pay big dividends to guys like Quinnen [Williams] and Will [McDonald IV],” Javon Kinlaw told The Post. “They can’t focus on Quinnen so much or Will so much, so it’s like, pick your poison. 

“I was just watching him out there move around, and it’s just different. He’s so explosive every time he gets off the ball, you see dirt and grass flying up 6 feet in the air. It’s crazy.” 

McDonald (eight sacks) is making the second-year leap that Jermaine Johnson did a year ago. Johnson unfortunately was lost to a torn Achilles Week 2 at Tennessee. Enter Reddick. 

“He’s a problem,” Kinlaw said. 

Williams (two sacks, seven quarterback hits, 15 combined tackles) could benefit more than anyone. 

“Elite pass rusher like that, elite player like that, man, he can do a lot for this defense, a lot for me in general, man,” Williams told The Post, “so having him is like Christmas morning.” 

For too long, the Jets would have been better off believing in Santa Claus than Haason Reddick. 

“Like I’ve been saying, he’s a Defensive Player of the Year-caliber player, man, and definitely a Pro Bowl and an All-Pro player every single year,” Williams said. 

Asked how Reddick looked on the field, Williams said, “He looked one of a kind, man,” Williams said. 

With safeties Jalen Mills and Isaiah Oliver replacing injured Chuck Clark and Tony Adams, the secondary will welcome more heat on Maye. 

“The ball’s coming out quicker from the quarterback’s hands, he’s worried about the D-line, he’s worried about getting sacked, pressure, whatever, it makes our job all the more easier,” Oliver said. 

The Jets had promised to welcome Reddick with open arms whenever he came to his senses. 

“He’s been engaged in the meetings, smiling around the building, so he’s brought a lot of new energy, so it’s been fun,” Oliver said. 

Reddick is just 6-foot-1, 240 pounds, but he is more than just a speed rusher. 

“He’s got all the moves,” Oliver said, “and he can beat you on the edge with straight speed. And then obviously he’s super smart, too, just being in the league as long as he has.” 

Reddick is not in football shape and is likely to be deployed as a situational pass rusher in the beginning. 

“He just has a great ability to get to the ball, and a want-to to not being stopped,” C.J. Mosley told The Post. “He came here ready to work, saw him taking notes, he’s sitting right behind me in our defensive meeting room, at practice he’s doing his job, asking questions, so it’s all good.” 

D-line coach Aaron Whitecotton has been impressed with Reddick’s businesslike professionalism and is diligently monitoring his ramp-up. 

“He’s always challenging himself physically to stay in shape. He’s not one of those guys who’s kind of like up and down,” Whitecotton said. “We have faith in him that he would be ready to rock.” 

Offensive play-caller Todd Downing sounds relieved he doesn’t have to scheme for Reddick. 

“Definitely a guy you gotta game plan [for] so that he can’t wreck the game,” Downing said. “I know you guys saw a bunch of stuff in the Pittsburgh game where we had to have a plan for T.J. Watt. [Reddick is] that caliber of a rusher that if you don’t account for him, he can ruin the game.” 

Then ruin the game, and show your team what it has missed. 

Go get the quarterback.
