Jets’ Davante Adams set to play after overcoming grueling stomach bug

Credit the power of chicken soup.

Davante Adams practiced as a full participant Friday after he missed two days earlier this week with a stomach bug, cured with help from a big bowl of chef-made soup that the receiver was seen sipping in the locker room.

He is listed as questionable but left no doubt he expects to play Sunday against the Colts.

“We’re back rolling,” Adams told The Post. “You have to be bland, stay hydrated and don’t get too excited on the foods.”

Adams emerged from last week’s loss to the Cardinals with wrist soreness, but he said that is not a concern that would sideline him.

The Jets (3-7) are in a must-win spot, with only a 13 percent chance to reach the playoffs, according to NFL.com.

“This team is relying on me. That’s why I’m here — to help the team win,” Adams said. “It’s my 11th year playing in the league. I know the difference between being hurt and being injured — and if I’m not injured, I’m going to be out there.”

It’s notable because there are skeptics who think Adams missed the final three games of his Raiders tenure while waiting for his trade request to be met and not because of a severe hamstring injury.

He made his Jets debut only five days after the trade was finalized.

Adams says it’s “more important” to be on the field during rough times.

“It gives you a lot more incentive to want to be out there helping out,” Adams said. “Regardless of where we are, as long as we have a fighting chance, everybody’s mind is going to be in it the right way. Obviously, we don’t want it to be the other way, but even if so, you want to go out there and play for your pride and for your brothers to win the game. That’s where my head is.”

What’s strange is that Adams and Aaron Rodgers have only connected on 20 of 39 targets (51.2 percent) over four games. Adams is securing 63.5 percent of his targets over his career — mostly playing with Rodgers on the Packers.

Why the difference?

“It can be a little bit misleading on the target-versus-catch ratio because there are a couple of throwaways that he ends up being the ‘target,’ ” offensive play caller Todd Downing said. “Obviously, he and Aaron have a great history together, and hopefully can start connecting on a couple of those opportunities.”

Adams expects that percentage to be on the rise soon.

“If everybody watched the tape, it would be clear there are some that are playmaking opportunities and there are some that are that type of situation,” Adams said. “We haven’t been able to click at as high a level as we have in the past, but getting here and having five minutes to work before getting on the field together is not going to help. We’ve had some opportunities out there.”

Maybe the chicken soup is the cure for converting opportunities into big plays, too.
