“When the going gets tough, the tough gets goin’ asks for a trade to a better team.”
-The NFL 2019-2020 season mantra
Just hours after Jags corner Jalen Ramsey asked out of Jacksonville following a heated sidelines confrontation with coach Doug Marrone, Jets star safety Jamal Adams is seemingly chomping at the bit to ditch a team so bad, it brought Le’Veon Bell to literal tears.
The Pro Bowler has unfollowed the Jets on Instagram, and he has removed any reference to Adams from his bio following the Jets’ embarrassing 23-3 loss to the Browns to remain winless heading into a daunting Week 3 against the Patriots.

Despite the reports, Adams told ESPN’s Dianna Russini that he never followed the Jets in the first place.
I see there’s buzz that Jamal Adams unfollowed the Jets on social media. When I asked him about it, he mentioned he never followed the NYJ since he was drafted. #Jets

That is most likely a lie, as Adams also removed any mention of the Jets from his bio. Here is the proof.

Adams has had very little success in three season with the Jets–posting a 9-25 record–with the Jets failing to put winning pieces around him.
The Patriots are more than 20 point favorites against the Jets and have outscored their opponents by 73 points through the first two weeks. Gulp. I may ask out too.
