Lions Release Jamal Adams from Practice Squad

Jamal Adams, a former three-time Pro Bowl safety, has been released from the Detroit Lions' practice squad just a month after joining the team. Despite earlier excitement about the opportunity to play for a Super Bowl contender, Adams played sparingly, totaling only 40 snaps and three tackles in two games. The Lions, grappling with defensive injuries, have opted to part ways with Adams, suggesting they believe he can no longer contribute effectively. This marks a significant downturn in Adams' career following a tumultuous tenure that began with a trade from the Jets in 2020. As he enters free agency, questions arise about whether Adams will find a new team or if his NFL career is nearing its end. At 29 years old, Adams may still attract interest from teams seeking safety depth, but his recent performances raise concerns about his future in the league.
