Disrespect (and mutual respect) fuel the re-energized New York Jets

EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ—This cannot happen. How Jamal Adams felt while walking through the tunnel at MetLife Stadium, prior to his team’s critical contest against the 6-4 Oakland Raiders on Sunday, wasn’t fit for kids. Disney+ couldn’t house such raw emotion, such dark content.

An R-rated Adams knew it wasn’t right. This is New Jersey. This is MetLife Stadium. This is his team’s home.

To hear boos cascade down as his boys stepped on the turf for their pre-game routine was unacceptable.

“I’m not gonna lie to you,” Adams said after the New York Jets’ dominant 34-3 victory over the Oakland Raiders on Sunday.
