Seahawks’ Jamal Adams’ NFL Return Gets Cut Short By Head Injury

During the Seattle Seahawks 24-3 over the New York Giants, safety Jamal Adams suffered a head injury.

Adams was playing for the first time since last season’s opener, where he tore his left quad tendon and was playing his first game in 385 days. He was injured on the ninth play of the game, where he stayed down on the field for the moment where he appeared wobbly. Adams later walked off the field to receive medical support. 

Adams was later seen yelling at the doctor who evaluates head injuries and appeared to be held back by two Seahawks staff members. 

Coach Pete Carroll said that Adams should be able to play the Seahawks’ Week 6 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals.

“He got kicked in the head and so he misses this game, but the preparation to get him to this and then with the week coming off, he’s going to be fine, I’m sure, and then be back out there. So it’s just a little glitch right now,” Caroll stated. 

Adams has been 28 out of 53 regular season games due to injury. He had two tackles and almost sacked Giants quarterback Daniel Jones before leaving the game.

Adams opened up about his injury to The News Tribune, describing it as “devastating” and admitted to thinking about retiring.

“It’s been hard, man. I love the game like no other. You know, when you lose something that you really, really love, it takes a toll on you. Obviously, mentally, I had to get over that, had to adjust. That was just life. … I had to talk to myself, mentally.” Adams said.
