Titans agree to terms with Adams

The Tennessee Titans signed veteran safety Jamal Adams, the team announced Thursday.

Adams inked a one-year contract with Tennessee, his agents confirmed to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The 28-year-old will provide the Titans with a veteran presence in the secondary. Adams began his career with the New York Jets before being traded to the Seahawks and spending four seasons in Seattle.

Injuries limited Adams' impact on the field over the past few years, and the three-time Pro Bowler missed most of the 2023 campaign due to a concussion. Adams recorded 48 tackles, seven tackles for loss, and two QB hits in nine games in 2024.

Adams missed 33 of a possible 67 regular-season contests during his Seahawks tenure. After compiling 9.5 sacks in 2020, the LSU product failed to replicate that impact in the following campaigns.

The Titans have been proactive this offseason in restructuring their roster ahead of head coach Brian Callahan's first year with the franchise. The club acquired cornerbacks L'Jarius Sneed and Chidobe Awuzie in March to help bolster the back half of its defense.

Tennessee appears optimistic about reuniting Adams with defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson, who served as the Jets' defensive back coach when Adams received a first-team All-Pro nod in 2019.

Adams joins a safety group that also features Amani Hooker and Elijah Molden. The 6-foot-1, 213-pounder is expected to compete for a starting role when the Titans open training camp on July 23.
