Adam Gase: Shipping Jarvis Landry to Browns wasn’t personal

Adam Gase and Jarvis Landry still can’t agree, two seasons later.

Last year, Landry told ESPN he believes his former coach with the Dolphins sent him to Cleveland “to die.” Gase, the Browns receiver said, would joke about sending players to the Browns if they were in his doghouse, as a form of motivation.

Gase on Friday admitted he did it once, which Landry said was untrue.

“It wasn’t a one-time joke,” said Landry, who will face his former coach Monday when the Jets play host to the Browns.

“We had the 4 p.m. [trade deadline] and we had a team meeting earlier in the day and one of the guys was like, ‘Woah it looks like everybody’s clean, nobody got traded,’ ” the first-year Jets coach recalled.
