Jamal Adams hated losing so much when he was on the Jets that he claimed it made him depressed to the point where getting out of New York and playing on a winning team was all that mattered to him.
Adams did everything in his power to facilitate a trade in July 2020. He talked his way out of town and burned bridges along the way. Joe Douglas eventually had enough and sent the All-Pro safety to the Seahawks, where it seemed the safety would have a chance at winning a Super Bowl and getting paid.
Two years later, Adams has gotten paid. But he’s right back at square one when it comes to playing for a team in the midst of a massive rebuild with no real designs on winning now.
