Jeff Ulbrich refutes notion that Jets ‘checked out’ against Bills

Jeff Ulbrich disagreed with Sauce Gardner.

Days after Gardner mentioned his teammates “checked out” of their 40-14 loss to the Payments on Sunday, the Jets’ interim head coach had a special view.

“I took a tough have a look at the tape,” Ulbrich mentioned Friday. “I actually did, and never due to his feedback, however I took a tough have a look at the tape as a result of that’s what you do in occasions like this. I mentioned it earlier than: Adversity is a present, and it actually reveals individuals. And I appeared exhausting at this tape, and I particularly appeared exhausting when the rating obtained out of whack, and I didn’t see something, something.

“I didn’t see one human being tapping. I didn’t see one man relenting. I didn’t. That’s my tackle it.”

Gardner was dominated out for Sunday’s finale in opposition to the Dolphins with a hamstring damage.

Tyler Conklin, Morgan Moses, Alijah Vera-Tucker and Quinnen Williams are questionable.

The Jets probably received’t be going through Tua Tagovailoa as they attempt to spoil the Dolphins’ playoff hopes.

Tagovailoa is listed as uncertain and is unlikely to play Sunday resulting from a hip damage, Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel mentioned Friday.

Tagovailoa missed the Dolphins’ Week 17 win over the Browns with the damage, which he suffered through the staff’s Week 16 loss to the Texans.

Tyler Huntley is predicted to make his fifth begin of the season in Tagovailoa’s place.

In the course of the Dolphins’ 32-26 win over the Jets in Week 13, Tagovailoa accomplished 33 of 47 passes for 331 yards and two touchdowns.

In 4 begins this yr, Huntley has accomplished 66.3 % of his passes for 602 yards, two touchdowns and an interception, together with 119 dashing yards and two extra touchdowns on the bottom.

The Dolphins formally eradicated the Jets from the playoffs — marking the staff’s 14th straight yr and not using a playoff look — with that Week 13 win.

The Jets can return the favor and remove the Dolphins from the playoffs with a win Sunday.

Miami wants a win and a Broncos loss as a way to attain the playoffs.
