Jets’ Jamal Adams denies he requested a trade

Rumors were hot and heavy surrounding New York Jets safety Jamal Adams ahead of Tuesday’s trade deadline.

While nothing came to fruition on that end, reports suggested that Adams would welcome a change of scenery.

The third-year Pro Bowler promptly took to social media Tuesday afternoon to decry any rumors that he had in fact requested a trade.

At the end of the week last week, I sat down with the GM and Coach Gase and told them I want to be here in New York. I was told yesterday by my agent that the GM then went behind my back and shopped me around to teams, even after I asked him to keep me here! Crazy business.

That clears some stuff up. It’s still going to be all sorts of awkward for the Jets when they make their way back to practice on Wednesday.

In addition to Adams, the team was apparently listening to offers for Le’Veon Bell and Robby Anderson.

At 1-6 on the season, things have gone south in Jersey big time. Tuesday’s trade rumors will likely only add to that.
