Jets WR returns after concussion check

2024-11-01 15:20:02

The New York Jets were in a close game with the Houston Texans on “Thursday Night Football”. There was a fear they may have had to finish the game without one of their top receivers: Davante Adams.

The Jets were driving to close the third quarter when Adams produced a 17-yard gain on a critical fourth-and-1 from the Texans’ 48. He beat Houston’s Kamari Lassiter off the line of scrimmage and made it well past the first-down marker before cornerback Eric Murray forced him out of bounds.

But Adams was slow to get up after the play and later was evaluated for a concussion. He was seen on the game broadcast leaving the field and heading to the locker room.

Adams did return, however, taking the field in the fourth quarter with the Jets clinging to a 14-10 lead. And it was an emphatic return, Adams hauling in his first touchdown with the Jets to give the team a 21-10 lead with 2:56 to go.

Adams had six receptions for 54 yards on 10 targets when he left the game. That’s the most catches he’s had in a Jets uniform since a trade brought him to the Jets from Las Vegas.

He finished with seven catches for 91 yards and the touchdown.
