Even if it is Mark's brother, he'd have a lot of reasons to deny the report even if it was true. Especially if the offer was insulting, or they're not interested in doing anything that might help the Jets.

Right now the only reason Sanchez would be inclined to give up any guaranteed money would be to get out of town.

 

Even as beloved as he is by the fan base I still don’t think he will be giving up any money to stay in NY

The New York Post reports the Jets have not approached Mark Sanchez about restructuring his contract:

 

That's because Sanchez — whose 2013 base salary is fully guaranteed — has no
incentive to, and any restructure would have to involve extending the
Jets' guaranteed commitment to Sanchez beyond next season. Sanchez's
$8.25 million 2013 salary is immovable, and should ensure the Jets can't
afford viable competition for a QB whose play sunk to embarrassing,
comical depths in 2012. Feb 12 - 5:13 PM

Also, I know there was some talk of this, but the Jets have not asked Mark Sanchez to restructure his contract, per source. #nyj

I don't see any of this as a story. It is an option if they have a specific signing they want to make and feel strongly about or to lower his salary to trade him.  It makes sense to move some of the Sanchez money to 2014 in those circumstances.  If it's not needed for what they feel is an important piece, just take your lumps.
