Jamal Adams brings the energy and attitude to make Jets' culture change stick

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. – Jamal Adams is never one to pull punches, and if he feels something needs to be said, he’ll be the first to say it. Especially when his team needs a reminder to step it up.

The third-year safety questioned the team’s losing vibe and accused players of doing the “bare minimum” during an interview with Bleacher Report last year. He ripped the team during a radio appearance on WFAN after a pathetic 41-10 home loss to the Bills last November and all but accused some teammates of quitting on the team.

But after a sweeping house cleaning in the offseason, with coach Adam Gase replacing Todd Bowles and general manager Joe Douglas succeeding Mike Maccagnan, Adams believes the Jets’ culture is now properly set.
