Jets’ Gregg Williams reveals his first words to Adams
Well, at least the Jets’ new defensive coordinator isn’t shy with his new team.
Gregg Williams adamantly said his feelings about safety Jamal Adams right if they met. He left no space for a query.
“One of the things is he is very inspired by directness and I said’I have coached better folks than you previously,'” Williams said when asked what the first thing that he said to Adams was. “Right off the bat. This was a point, and all a sudden he’s been fun to watch and he can’t pretend who he is either.”
Ever since being drafted sixth overall in 2017, Adams has been among the league’s best safeties. Adams was adamant his rookie year wasn’t great enough. He tweeted,”I will not overlook another Pro Bowl. Believe that”
What did his season bring? A Pro Bowl and second-team All-Pro selection after 86 tackles, 12 passes defended and 3.5 sacks. Now, with Gregg Williams leading his defense for the first year, Adams has been challenged to reach another level.
Williams went on to mention Adams and fellow third-year security Marcus Maye as guys who need to keep sharp.
“Not just him Marcus (Maye) and some other guys, too,” Williams stated. “We’ve got to keep healthy, and we have got to cut them loose and let them play. But they’ve had a good spring.”
As usual, Williams is making his thoughts known to everybody who will listen.
