Jets hoping to strengthen their bonds during this England trip

Text with Brian Costello all season as he brings Sports+ subscribers the latest Jets intel from on the field and off.HERTFORDSHIRE, England — You won’t catch the Jets hanging out at Big Ben this week, but coach Aaron Glenn does hope this overseas trip gives his beleaguered team a chance to bond.“I really love the idea of us getting away, get a chance to get in this hotel, be able to vibe together as a group, being honest in exactly the things we have to work on to improve on where we’re at,” Glenn said Wednesday.

“Our guys are doing a really good job of that.”The Jets traveled here Monday night, earlier than they have in their three previous trips for London games.Quarterback Justin Fields said Glenn challenged the players to speak to some of their teammates on this trip that they don’t usually hang out with.“This is definitely an opportunity for us to get closer as a team, build that camaraderie, and just get closer,” Fields said.The team is staying at The Grove, a hotel about an hour outside of central London.

They have a weight room, meeting rooms and practice field on site.At 0-5, this trip might be arriving at a perfect time for the Jets.

They are away from home and all of the noise of New York.“The thing that we’re not running from is the fact that we are where we are.We’re 0-5,” Glenn said.

“There’s a lot of work for us to get done.This is a really good week to try to hone in on those things.

There are a lot of distractions on the outside.That’s what the NFL is.

You can’t run from that.I’m not running from that either.

We just have to work our ass off on a daily basis to get out of this hole.” Sign up for Inside the Jets by Brian Costello, a weekly Sports+ exclusive.Please provide a valid email.
