Adam Gase confirms one player has opted out. He declined to name him, but obviously we now know it's OL Leo Koloamatangi, who was on the roster late last season but did not play.

Adam Gase on the 2020 Jets:

We have a way deeper roster, I love the attitude these guys have.

Gase says he sees a different Sam Darnold. More confident. Better understanding of offense. Better relationships with all players, including defense. #Jets
