Time doesn't appear to have healed the wounds between Jamal Adams and the New York Jets.

Adams requested a trade last month due to frustration over the lack of a new long-term deal.

The safety told the New York Daily News that Joe Douglas expressed a willingness to trade him under the right circumstances, but has yet to give Adams' side permission to seek out a potential swap.

Adams noted that one big reason he wants out is he doesn't trust Adam Gase as a leader.

"I don't feel like he's the right leader for this organization to reach the Promised Land," he said. "As a leader, what really bothers me is that he doesn't have a relationship with everybody in the building.

"At the end of the day, he doesn't address the team," Adams added. "If there's a problem in the locker room, he lets another coach address the team. If we're playing sh---y and we're losing, he doesn't address the entire team as a group at halftime. He'll walk out of the locker room and let another coach handle it."

Adams, 24, also said Douglas initially said he'd look to extend him, but the general manager has since deflected at every turn.
