Won't need right shoulder surgery
Adams does not need surgery on his right shoulder according to head coach Pete Carroll, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: While Adams is slated to undergo surgery for a torn left labrum, it is confirmed that surgery for his right shoulder isn't necessary. The safety played through multiple injuries this season that he'll spend the majority of his offseason healing from. Adams, who posted 83 tackles (59 solo), 9.5 sacks and a forced fumble in his first Seahawks season, will be healthy by the start of the 2021 season.

Labrum surgery ordered up
Adams is slated to undergo offseason surgery to repair a torn left labrum in his shoulder, and he may also require a procedure for his right shoulder, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Additionally, Adams will require a more minor surgery to address multiple injured fingers on his left hand, so the star safety looks poised to spend much of his offseason in rehab mode. While the exact nature of Adams' right shoulder issue isn't known, the labrum surgery will likely keep him sidelined for OTAs, though he should be cleared for full activities before the start of the 2021 season. Despite being well below full strength for much of his first season in Seattle, Adams appeared in 13…read more

Multiple surgeries on tap
Adams will undergo surgeries on his shoulder and finger after the Seahawks were eliminated from the playoffs by the Rams on Saturday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: The 25-year-old has been banged up throughout the season, and he also suffered a torn labrum in his left shoulder Week 17 against the 49ers, per Joe Fann of NBC Sports Northwest. Adams had 83 tackles (59 solo), 9.5 sacks and one forced fumble in 12 games this season and is entering the final year of his contract in 2021.

Cleared for Saturday's playoff game
Adams (shoulder/hand) does not carry an injury designation into Saturday's wild-card matchup against the Rams after being listed as a limited practice participant Thursday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Adams will fight through pain if he has to, stating Wednesday that he's willing to do "whatever it takes" to suit up against the Rams in what will be the first playoff appearance of his career, per Brady Henderson of ESPN.com. Not only is the three-time Pro Bowl safety contending with a right shoulder injury, according to Henderson, but he is also playing through two broken fingers on his left hand.

Practices with limitations
Adams (shoulder/hand) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Despite a limited tag Wednesday and being called a game-time decision by head coach Pete Carroll, Adams relayed to Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle that he's "full-go" and will play in Saturday's wild-card game against the Rams.

Analysis: According to Boyle, the 25-year-old was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report. Carroll initially indicated he expected Adams to be able to play against Los Angeles, but his availability appears to be in question.

Banged up in season finale
Adams hurt his shoulder in Sunday's regular season finale against the 49ers and was in and out of the game after suffering the injury, but coach Pete Carroll said after the game that trainers believe Adams will be available for the wild-card round against the Rams next week, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Carroll added that Adams' injury was to his other shoulder as opposed to the one he injured earlier this year, suggesting this isn't an aggravation of a previous injury. The Seahawks paid a hefty sum, which included two first-round picks, to acquire Adams from the Jets this offseason, and he responded by a setting a defensive-back record with 9.5 sacks for a defense that started slowly but picked it up down the stretch.

Continues pass-rushing domination
Adams posted nine tackles (seven solo) and a sack in Sunday's 20-15 win over Washington.
Analysis: Adams has been remarkable as a pass rusher with the Seahawks, exceeding any reasonable expectations for the newcomer. The fourth-year safety has registered 9.5 sacks through 10 games, tied for seventh in the league. Every player ahead of him in the rankings has played at least 12 contests. Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports that Adams is dealing with a couple of broken fingers, but that's not expected to cause the All Pro to miss any time.

Notches sack against former team
Adams made five tackles (two solo), a sack and a pass breakup in Sunday's 40-3 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Adams dropped an easy interception in the first half, which would've marked his first pick since Week 3 of the 2019 season. The fourth-year safety remains the Seahawks' top pass rusher, stacking up 8.5 sacks and 21 quarterback pressures through nine games. In fact, he ranks tied for eighth in the league in sacks despite missing four games this year.

Not at 100 percent
Coach Pete Carroll said Monday that Adams is "at about 85 percent" due to a lingering shoulder injury, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Adams' condition hasn't affected his performance, as he has piled up 20 tackles and two sacks over the past two games. There may be an ongoing risk of re-injury for the All-Pro safety, but he's a surefire IDP asset on a weekly basis due to his significant ceiling.

Huge performance on MNF
Adams made nine tackles (six solo) and a sack in Monday's 23-17 win over the Eagles.
Analysis: Adams has juggled responsibilities as a safety, cornerback and edge rusher, and his numbers followed through accordingly. Through seven games, Adams has produced 47 tackles (31 solo) and a career-high 6.5 sacks through seven contests. Despite missing four games this year, Adams leads the Seahawks' defense in sacks by a wide margin. The 25-year-old should be confidently started in IDP fantasy formats.

Fine after injury scare
Adams recorded seven tackles (six solo), two sacks and a forced fumble in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Adams hurt his shoulder on the opening drive and went directly to the locker room, but he returned quickly and ended up playing 67 of 70 defensive snaps. He was quite productive, too, and coach Pete Carroll has already cleared Adams for Thursday's matchup against the Cardinals, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN.com, a notion that is backed up by his full participation in Monday's practice estimate.

Suffers shoulder injury
Adams was forced out of Sunday's game against the Rams with a shoulder injury, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Analysis: Adams left early in the first quarter and immediately went to the locker room. The Seahawks' secondary is already banged up, as starting cornerbacks Shaquill Griffin (hamstring) and Quinton Dunbar (knee) are inactive. Ryan Neal likely will step up at strong safety until Adams can return, but the All-Pro safety's absence affects the entire defensive dynamic, specifically the pass rush.

Leaves with injury
Adams was forced out of Sunday's game against the Rams with an undisclosed injury, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Adams returned to action last week after missing four games with a groin injury, and he went to the locker room this Sunday after just one defensive drive. The team hasn't revealed the nature of Adams' injury, but that report should be available if the All-Pro safety doesn't return soon.

Tied for team lead in sacks
Adams made five tackles (four solo) and 1.5 sacks in Sunday's 44-34 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Adams returned after sitting four games with a groin injury, and he was immediately disruptive once again. The fourth-year safety now has 3.5 sacks this season, a team high despite the extended absence. His work in coverage has been less appealing, however, as Adams has given up 272 yards when targeted over four games.

On track to play Sunday
Adams (groin) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bills, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Seahawks haven't finished Friday's practice yet, but barring a setback with his groin in that session, Adams is poised to rejoin the secondary following a four-game absence. His return should provide a big boost to a Seattle pass defense that has struggled mightily throughout the season, though the team will be without the services of its No. 1 cornerback in Shaquill Griffin (hamstring/concussion).

Limited reps Wednesday
Adams (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Coach Pete Carroll said earlier Wednesday that Adams was "full-go" at practice, so his limited tag likely is a product of a no-contact practice rather than a red flag about his groin injury. Carroll essentially cleared him for Sunday's game versus the Bills, but the All-Pro safety will need to avoid a setback through Friday's practice. Once he's ready to go, the Seahawks' defense will immediately be stronger at every level.

Reps to be managed in practice
Coach Pete Carroll says that Adams (groin/illness) will be on a pitch count during upcoming practice sessions Wednesday and Thursday with hopes that he can play Week 9 against Buffalo, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: The two-time Pro-Bowl safety was on course to make his first appearance since Week 3 when the Seahawks hosted the 49ers on Sunday, but a non-COVID illness ended up keeping him on the shelf for an NFC West clash. With that in mind, Adams seemingly has a strong chance to suit up against the Bills so long as he can recover from his illness. The July trade acquisition had recorded 23 tackles and two sacks over his first three outings of the year.

Analysis: Carroll also noted that Adams was on track for Sunday's contest against the 49ers before suffering a setback in the form of a non-COVID illness. The star safety hasn't played a snap since Week 3, but if he's indeed able to return against the 6-2 Bills, his presence would provide Seattle's defense with a notable boost.

Deemed questionable for Sunday
Adams (groin/illness) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the 49ers, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.
Analysis: Adams was expected to return this week, but those plans were derailed after the All-Pro safety missed practice Wednesday and Thursday due to an illness. According to Brady Henderson of ESPN.com, Adams returned to practice Friday, but even coach Pete Carroll is skeptical that the safety can return Sunday having only practiced once in the last month. Adams likely is a true game-time decision, and the final verdict on his status will be revealed about 90 minutes before the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

It's a crucial first step for the All-Pro safety's return to the lineup, and he has a good chance to return to action if he can avoid a setback this week.

Not returning Week 7
The Seahawks have ruled Adams (groin) out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Even with the benefit of a Week 6 bye, Adams was not able to move past the strained groin that sidelined him for two games prior to Seattle's open date in the schedule.

Analysis: Adams is dealing with a first-degree groin strain, and while Carroll called him day-to-day Monday morning, the head coach was less optimistic as the day wore on. The All Pro safety has been a game-changer for the Seahawks, registering 23 tackles, two sacks and a pass breakup over 150 snaps this season.

Another double-digit effort
Adams recorded 10 tackles -- one for a loss -- and a sack in Sunday's 35-30 win over the Patriots.
Analysis: For a second straight week, Adams led the Seahawks in tackles and was the best defensive player on the field. Although Cam Newton broke loose a few times, Adams was instrumental in pressuring him and slowing him down as a runner. It was uncertain whether Adams would be a consistent IDP performer with Bobby Wagner and K.J. Wright on the roster -- both recorded 100-plus tackles in 2019 -- but the All-Pro safety has made that a moot point and is a strong option moving forward.

Dynamic in Seahawks debut
Adams recorded 12 tackles -- two for a loss -- and a sack in Sunday's 38-25 win over the Falcons.
Analysis: Adams wasted no time asserting himself as the team's best defensive player Sunday, as he led the team in tackles and was an effective pass rusher, adding two QB hits as well. The All-Pro safety made Seattle's defense much more effective since he can rush the passer, clog up running lanes and play in coverage. His high tackle count is intriguing for fantasy purposes, too, as he averaged just 5.4 stops per game in 2019. He'll be an IDP monster if the tackle count remains high.

Not demanding new contract
Adams and the Seahawks reached a mutual understanding that the safety will play out 2020 on his existing contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

He's apparently willing to be more patient for his new team, hoping to reach a long-term agreement next offseason.

Analysis: The 24-year-old safety wants a new deal before Week 1 of his fourth pro season, while the Jets prefer to wait on a long-term extension. The team exercised its fifth-year option on Adams, who has averaged 70 tackles, 8.3 pass defenses, four sacks and two forced fumbles per season since he was picked sixth overall in the 2017 draft. The Jets reportedly have no desire to trade him, though Cimini suggests that more than half the teams in the NFL have reached out to the them to express interest.…read more

Will have option exercised
GM Joe Douglas confirmed Monday that the Jets will exercise Adams' fifth-year team option for 2021, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Adams and the Jets are expected to touch base on a lucrative long-term extension in the months to come, but the estimated $9.9 million option for 2021 -- which becomes fully guaranteed next March -- will at least ensure him a nice payday in the final year of his rookie-scale contract. The 24-year-old safety earned a second straight Pro Bowl nod in 2019 after accruing 75 tackles, 6.5 sacks, seven pass breakups, two forced fumbles and an interception in 14 contests.

Skipping virtual offseason program
Adams doesn't intend to participate in the Jets' virtual, voluntary offseason program, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Adams is entering the final season of his rookie contract, albeit with the Jets maintaining team control through 2021 via the fifth-year option. He presumably wants an extension before he participates in team activities, but Jets GM Joe Douglas said any discussions will go on the backburner until after the draft, per Rich Cimini of ESPN.com. The two sides reportedly had a preliminary discussion back in January or February.

Begins to discuss extension
The Jets have approached Adams' representatives regarding a potential contract extension for the safety, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
Analysis: Though rumors popped up prior to this year's trade deadline indicating Adams could be dealt, the Jets appear committed to locking down the first-team All-Pro to a long-term deal. Adams remains under contract through the 2020 season and can be retained through 2021 if the Jets exercise his fifth-year option this offseason, but the 2017 first-round pick is likely eager to gain more long-term security. Adams is presumably looking to be paid on par with top safeties like Earl Thomas and Eddie…read more

Tackles down, sacks up in Year 3
Adams racked up three solo tackles and a pass defensed in Week 17 against Buffalo. He finishes the season with 75 tackles, 6.5 sacks and one interception, which he returned for a 61-yard touchdown.
Analysis: Adams missed two games, which partially accounted for his decline in tackles from 115 in 2018 to 75 in 2019. Despite the missed time, the sixth overall selection from the 2017 draft raised his sack total by 3.0 from the 3.5 he had in his second year. Adams had some disagreements with GM Joe Douglas during the season -- he accused Douglas of going behind his back in taking calls on Adams ahead of the trade deadline -- but the standout safety is still expected to begin next season on the Jets as…read more

Ready for regular-season finale
Adams (ankle) is active for Sunday's divisional contest against the Bills, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.
Analysis: Adams was initially listed as questionable for Week 17 due to an ankle injury, but the star safety looks set to draw his usual start. Adams logged a trio of limited practices leading up to Sunday's contest in Buffalo.

Questionable for Week 17
Adams (ankle) is officially questionable for Sunday's season finale against the Bills, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Adams managed the ankle issue throughout the week and logged only limited practice time in all three sessions. The 2017 first-round pick missed Weeks 14 and 15 with the issue, so it's unclear if he's in danger of missing Sunday's contest or simply resting. If he can't go Sunday, look for Matthais Farley and Blake Countess to see an uptick in snaps.

Remains on injury report
Adams (ankle) was a limited participant Wednesday in the team's estimated practice report, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Adams played through the ankle injury in the team's Week 16 win over the Steelers, snapping a two-game absence. His projected limited participation indicates he didn't suffer a serious setback in the contest. If that remains the case, Adams should be in a good position to play in the team's regular-season finale against the Bills.

Tagged questionable for Week 16
Adams (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
Analysis: Adams has practiced on a limited basis every day this week and has been said to have a high chance of playing, per head coach Adam Gase. The 24-year-old's return after a two-game absence would be a huge boon to the Jets' defense.

Coach Adam Gase said Thursday that Adams (ankle) will be limited in practice and has "very high" chances of suiting up against the Steelers on Sunday, Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports.
Analysis: Adams has now logged back-to-back limited practice sessions, and he appears on track to retake the field Week 16 following a two-game absence. If the star safety is able to practice without limitations Friday, all lingering concerns about his availability will be abolished.

Will be limited Wednesday
Adams (ankle) will be a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: After missing two straight games, Adams appears to be on track to return to game action Sunday against the Steelers. The 2017 first-round pick will need to avoid a setback during the practice week, and a full-speed workout would extinguish any doubt. The Jets' defense takes a major hit when Adams is out of the lineup, so it's worth monitoring his status as the week progresses.

Unlikely to play Thursday
Adams (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Ravens, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Adams initially was expected to be a game-time call, but that appeared to be too aggressive after he sat out this past Sunday's win over the Dolphins. The 24-year-old safety will look to leverage the "mini bye" from playing a weekday game into a return to the lineup Week 16 against the Steelers. Darryl Roberts is slated to start in Adams' place for the time being.

Set to be game-time call
Coach Adam Gase said Adams (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Thursday's matchup against the Ravens, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: Adams didn't practice Monday or Tuesday, and he won't necessarily need to work into Wednesday's session to have a shot at suiting up. Regardless, if Gase's statement turns out to be true, Adams will carry a questionable tag into Thursday's tilt, and his official status won't be revealed until 90 minutes before the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. If Matthias Farley (ribs) is unable to go, Darryl Roberts is in line to start in Adams' place.

Analysis: Adams only missed one snap during this past Sunday's loss to the Bengals after admitting he was injured early in the game. The third-year safety was also spotted in a walking boot following the contest. Gase relayed that it's unlikely Adams practices Wednesday, so we'll monitor his status during Thursday's and Friday's sessions.

Sports walking boot
Adams was spotted in a walking boot following Sunday's 22-6 loss to the Bengals, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Adams had an uncharacteristically poor outing, as he logged a season-low one tackle. According to Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News, Adams said he was injured early in the contest and battled through it, which may have led to the letdown on the stat line. It'll be worth keeping an eye on Adams' practice status leading up to Week 14's matchup against the suddenly alive Dolphins.

Continues recent surge
Adams recorded seven tackles (five solo), along with half a sack and three quarterback hits, in Sunday's 34-3 win over Oakland.
Analysis: Adams has been a key contributor in New York's three-game winning streak, as 5.5 of his 6.5 sacks this season have come in this three-game stretch. The 24-year-old safety is living up to the billing of being selected sixth overall in the 2017 draft, serving as the emotional leader of New York's defense while leading by example on the field.
