Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley said opting out of the 2020 season due to concerns over the coronavirus was “the biggest football decision” he’s made since becoming a professional. He hopes to return in 2021 as a better person and leader.
Mosley informed the Jets over the weekend that he would be sitting out this season because of family health concerns. He expounded on that while appearing on a Facebook Live event to help raise money for the Wounded Warrior Project. It was the first public remarks Mosley made since news came out on Saturday that he chose to opt out.
