That is a rough patch that the Jets are more than happy to get past as Adams has been a critical piece to the puzzle. He has been their best player on the defensive side this season. He has also continued to voice a strong commitment to stay with the franchise for the long haul. New York is venturing through a difficult season, having lost seven out of their first eight games. Despite their playoffs hopes all but crushed, it’s certainly a great sign for them to have Adams committed for the long-term.
