Seahawks star safety Jamal Adams, who is set to make his 2023 debut Monday night against the Giants, revealed that he considered retiring after suffering a severe leg injury in the 2022 season opener.
While speaking with reporters on Friday, Adams was candid about the mental stress and physical battle he endured in his road back to playing again.
“It was tough,” said Adams. “I thought about retiring. I thought about a lot of things. Is this going to be it for me? I didn’t know. But I knew eventually, after I got that MRI, I told myself I’m going to be back. I didn’t know when or how, but I was going to figure it out. I knew if I kept my faith and those around me who really love and support me, then I could make it out.”
