NEW YORK (AP) — New York Jets rookie wide receiver Denzel Mims is dealing with what coach Adam Gase called “a personal issue” and could miss the game Sunday at Seattle.
Gase wouldn’t detail the situation involving Mims on Wednesday since it’s a personal matter, but it is believed the receiver could need to travel home to Texas to handle a family matter.
Because Mims would then need to go through the NFL’s extensive COVID-19 protocols before being allowed back into the team’s facility, that could prevent him from being fully cleared before the game against the Seahawks.
