Anderson took to Twitter after WFAN’s Boomer Esiason said he was told the Jets offered Anderson a four-year, $40 million contract, which the former Temple wideout supposedly snubbed to sign a two-year, $20 million deal (with $12 million guaranteed) with Carolina.

“False news y’all need to better jobs reporting and putting out fake news too ppl,” Anderson tweeted, according to SNY.

Anderson had a successful stint with the Jets, pulling down 207 catches for 3,059 yards and 20 touchdowns, but his production would fade for stretches, and was boom-or-bust as a deep threat for second-year quarterback Sam Darnold.

The Jets quickly picked up Anderson’s replacement Tuesday, signing former Buccaneers and Ravens receiver Breshad Perriman for a one-year, $8 million deal.
