With players and coaches all finally allowed in the team’s facilities, Adam Gase is excited to embark on his second season as Jets head coach.
For Gase, there have been no shortages of headlines this offseason. While Joe Douglas stepped up to the plate first to answer questions regarding the Jamal Adams trade and the team’s future, it was Gase’s turn on Tuesday. Speaking on a conference call, the Jets head coach addressed the trade, comments made by Adams himself and what some of New York’s plans for the 2020 season may entail.
Here are the biggest takeaways from Gase’s call.
Refuting Adams
While Adam Gase wishes Jamal Adams “nothing but the best” as the All-Pro safety heads to Seattle, the Jets head coach dismissed the notion that he failed to address the team during halftime of every game.
Gase responded to Adams claims, telling reporters that “it’s hard for me to address that when I know the correct answer.” Gase pointed to two likely times that Adams didn’t hear his former head coach address the team. Last year, in Week 13 against the Cincinnati Bengals, Adams was in the training room during halftime. In Week 15 against the Baltimore Ravens, Adams was inactive and did not play.
