New York Jets coach Adam Gase, who presides over the worst offense in the NFL, doesn’t want to say who’s calling the plays because he believes it puts his team at “a competitive disadvantage.”
Gase wants to keep opponents guessing, the same opponents who have held the Jets to a league-low 14 points per game.
“It’s a collaborative effort,” Gase said Monday, one day after insisting offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains has been calling the majority of the plays in recent weeks even though visual evidence indicated otherwise on Sunday.
INDIANAPOLIS — Colts starting left tackle Anthony Castonzo left Sunday’s 45-26 loss to the Tennessee Titans early in the second quarter with a knee injury.
“I don’t think it’s the worst-case scenario,” Colts coach Frank Reich said after the game when asked about Castonzo’s injury.
It’s uncertain when Castonzo was injured because he completed the previous series without needing help from the training staff on the field.
INDIANAPOLIS — The Colts have signed defensive lineman Grover Stewart to a contract extension, the team announced Saturday.
The extension is a three-year, $30.75 million deal, a source confirmed.
Stewart, who was picked in the fourth round of the 2017 draft out of Albany State (Georgia), was scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
The COVID-19 outbreak in Baltimore has led the NFL to postpone the Baltimore Ravens-Pittsburgh Steelers game for a second time.
The Ravens will now play at the undefeated Steelers on Tuesday night at 8 ET, the NFL announced.
Baltimore was scheduled to play host to the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday night, but that game also has been moved, to Monday, Dec. 7, at 5 p.m. ET.
“We appreciate the efforts of the NFL and Pittsburgh Steelers throughout this process, while we all work to create an environment that keeps the health and safety of everyone involved at the forefront of each decision,” Ravens coach John Harbaugh said in a statement. “Our organization has a plan in place, and we will be prepared to play the Steelers. We thank everyone for their adaptability and look forward to the challenge of facing a very good football team at Heinz Field on Tuesday night.”
This is the third time in the Super Bowl era that an NFL game will be played on a Tuesday. It happened in Week 5 this season when the Buffalo Bills-Tennessee Titans game was postponed because of a coronavirus outbreak in Tennessee. It also occurred in 2010 when a blizzard in Philadelphia shifted an Eagles-Minnesota Vikings game.
