The sensational star among a group of experienced safeties available, is considering options for his next NFL contract. While there’s talk of rejoining the Seahawks, another team has shown interest. Today, he’s scheduled to meet with the Ravens, who have faced departures in key defensive positions this offseason, including safety and linebacker roles. Given Adams’ recent struggles in coverage, a linebacker role could be a consideration in his next contract.
Baltimore has witnessed Geno Stone leave for the Bengals, leaving gaps in their secondary. Although they have Marcus Williams and Kyle Hamilton as starting safeties, injuries have affected Williams’ tenure. Hamilton, after a breakout season in 2023, is expected to maintain his versatile role. Adding Adams could provide depth and versatility, especially if he’s utilized closer to the line of scrimmage, as hinted in previous reports.
With the departure of Patrick Queen to the Steelers, Baltimore is looking to fill linebacker positions. While Trenton Simpson is a potential starter, his limited experience raises the possibility of acquiring an experienced backup.
Adams, with 80 starts under his belt, faced injuries during his time with the Seahawks, leading to his release. At 28 years old, his market value may not be high this offseason, making him a potential low-cost option for the Ravens, who have limited cap space. A deal could offer Adams a rotational role on defense, providing mutual benefit if both parties agree.
