This is an interesting observation, as most of the offseason discourse surrounding Adams steps from his perceived frustration with the organization. Rumors throughout the league state that Adams wants to play for a contender and isn&#8217;t on the best of terms with head coach\u00a0<strong>Adam Gase<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Adams is currently entering his fourth year in the NFL. In most circumstances, the safety would be entering the final year of his rookie deal before hitting free agency. However, since he was a first-round pick, the team used a fifth-year option to keep him in town through 2021. If the Jets so desired, they could keep him for two additional seasons with the franchise tag.<\/p>\n<p>This is very much a make-or-break season for the New York Jets. New York struggled to a 7-9 record last year despite quarterback\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/D\/DarnSa00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sam Darnold<\/a><\/strong> missing part of the season with mono. During the offseason, the team made a notable effort to improve the offensive line and supporting cast in both free agency and the draft.

If they&#8217;re to pull off a surprising division victory, they&#8217;ll need their superstar safety on the field.<\/p>\n<p>Main photo:<br \/>\n<a id=\"JMatOznuQ_1akJK66Qruzw\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1195786805\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'JMatOznuQ_1akJK66Qruzw',sig:'xlUr-Q7cfH15mMuW4I0AIz65y7EpHvq90Z5wmHg153E=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1195786805',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York Jets running back Le&#8217;Veon Bell took to the airwaves to say that he believes star safety Jamal Adams will remain with the team in 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2376,"featured_media":91231,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","sfio_featured_image":false,"sfio_embed_code":"","_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[409,61,1275,98,218,40,246,1535,331],"class_list":["post-91229","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-jets","tag-adam-gase","tag-football","tag-jamal-adams","tag-leveon-bell","tag-new-york-jets","tag-nfl","tag-nfl-news","tag-sam-darnold","tag-tom-brady"],"modified_by":"David Latham, Managing Editor","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91229","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2376"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=91229"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91229\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/91231"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=91229"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=91229"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=91229"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
