CINCINNATI – Jamal Adams stood in front of his locker with his left foot in a walking boot and his eyes red and teary.
He looked like someone who was beaten not just from the loss, but from potentially bad news.
No one loves to play football more than the Jets’ safety. But Adams sounded like he didn’t know his immediate future after getting hurt on the first series of the Jets’ 22-6 defeat to the Bengals.
