Jets furious ESPN aired Sam Darnold’s ‘seeing ghosts’ comment

The Jets have gone from seeing ghosts to seeing red.

The team is livid with the decision to air a comment from quarterback Sam Darnold during the “Monday Night Football” broadcast on ESPN that he was “seeing ghosts.”

Jets coach Adam Gase said the team will reevaluate their cooperation with having players and coaches mic’d up moving forward.

“I think we’ll look into that pretty hard,” Gase said. “That was one of those things that was really disappointing to hear about after the game. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen that where somebody that was mic’d up was basically … a comment like that was allowed to be aired.
