That caused him to miss COVID-19 testing that week, which kept him out of the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>. Mims returned to New Jersey two days before the Seahawks game, but players must have five consecutive negative tests to play, so there was not enough time for him to be cleared.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was pretty tough, just knowing that I\u2019m healthy to play and I wasn\u2019t able to play with the team and watching them play a very good team,\u201d Mims said. \u201cIt was tough seeing that. I wish I was there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mims is back now and will play Sunday at the Rams. The rookie wide receiver from Baylor is one of the few reasons to watch the Jets over the final three games of the season. He has been improving since recovering from hamstring injuries that kept him out of the first six games.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" alt=\"Jets\" class=\"wp-image-16865642 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/120620Jets012CW.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/120620Jets012CW.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/120620Jets012CW.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/120620Jets012CW.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/120620Jets012CW.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2000 2000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Denzel Mims<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Charles Wenzelberg\/New York Post<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m no [rocket scientist] by any means, but right now I like how [Mims] is ascending, I like where he\u2019s going,\u201d coach Adam Gase said. \u201cEach week he\u2019s getting better. I see him do something, whether it\u2019s at practice or a game, where I\u2019m like, \u2018Man, he\u2019s getting this,\u2019 and you get excited and you love being around him, you love coaching him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mims has 19 catches for 324 yards in six games. He has yet to score a touchdown but did catch a two-point conversion pass against the Raiders. Mims was asked this week what he will focus on improving this offseason.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-megaphone\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"no\" height=\"200\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/playlist.megaphone.fm\/?e=ADL9182469662&amp;light=true\" width=\"100%\"><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThe main focus for me is I want to be able to be labeled as a good route runner,\u201d Mims said. \u201cThat\u2019s what, in the offseason, I\u2019m going to work on a lot. I\u2019m going to try to be good in that area and be good at everything else. I want to be that go-to guy. I\u2019m going to try to do everything I can so I can impress the coaches and my teammates so they can trust in me.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>The Jets will have Sam Ficken back at kicker Sunday after Sergio Castillo was cut this week. Castillo missed three field goals against the Seahawks on Sunday and was cut two days later. Ficken came off injured reserve after dealing with a groin injury.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just didn\u2019t think he was keeping his head down enough,\u201d special teams coordinator Brant Boyer said of Castillo\u2019s issues. \u201cI think his follow-through was a little short. And the thing with all players, at any position, if you have one bad play, you got to put it behind you and go to the next. It doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019re a corner, you\u2019re a linebacker, you\u2019re a lineman, it doesn\u2019t matter, especially a kicker, where it\u2019s a lot mentally. You can\u2019t let one bad play turn into two, two turn into three, three turn into four. And then, next thing you know, it\u2019s terrible.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>CB Bless Austin was fined $4,210 for unsportsmanlike conduct in last week\u2019s loss to the Seahawks. \u2026K Sam Ficken was activated from IR and will kick Sunday. \u2026 DL Tanzel Smart, LB Sharif Finch and LB Noah Dawkins were elevated from the practice squad.\n            <\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
