Former Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams has found a new home in the NFL. After being released by the Seahawks in March, Adams found his way to the Music City on a one-year deal with the Titans towards the middle of July.
ESPN’s Brady Henderson had reported previously the Seahawks were open to the possibility of bringing Adams back into the fold, albeit under different circumstances. In this scenario, Adams would switch positions from safety to linebacker. During a press conference in Tennessee, Adams confirmed this story. It was not something the three-time Pro Bowler was interested in.

The Seahawks will see Adams up close and personal again in August. Seattle is traveling to Nashville early to hold joint practices with the Titans before their Week 2 preseason game.
Tennessee is not on the Seahawks’ 2024 schedule, but it will be Seattle’s first trip back to the Music City since their thrilling 20-17 comeback win over the Titans last year. Geno Smith’s late game heroics kept the slim postseason hopes alive for Seattle with this victory.
Things may not have worked out the way everyone wanted them to with Adams in Seattle, but it is encouraging to hear him hold nothing but respect for his time with the Seahawks. Adams was always strong and diplomatic at the podium, and these are skills he clearly still has with the Titans. Wishing him all the best of luck this coming season.
