In a perfect world Adam Gase would have announced Sam Darnold was cleared to play tackle football again, C.J. Mosley was healthy and both would ready to do battle against the rejuvenated Eagles on Sunday in Philadelphia.
Instead both may not practice fully Wednesday and remain questionable for the Jets’ quest to avoid going 0-4 for the first time since 2003.
“It’s not an ideal situation,” Gase admitted during a conference call on Monday.
Nothing has been ideal since Mosley pulled a groin muscle batting down a pass with 4:04 left in the third quarter of the season opener against the Bills at MetLife Stadium.
