FLORHAM PARK, N.J. – Adam Gase cleared the air with Jamal Adams after the Pro Bowl safety voiced his displeasure about being taken out late in Monday’s 20-point loss to the Browns.
It was Gase’s call to remove Adams for the final five defensive snaps. But Gase wouldn’t classify it as a benching and said it wasn’t performance related.
“Absolutely not,” Gase said
The same can’t be said for another member of the Jets’ secondary. Trumaine Johnson was benched for performance reasons, and it’s looking like he will be watching from the sideline again when the Jets play in New England Sunday.
