Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams said he considered retirement after a season-ending injury in 2022 that left him in a cast for 20 weeks.
, revealed that he briefly but legitimately considered retiring in the immediate aftermath of the serious leg injury he suffered in last season's opener.
"I was having all types of thoughts running through my mind, but at the time when I did tear my knee, that was definitely something I was considering," said Adams, who has three seasons and $45 million remaining on the $70 million extension he signed in 2021."I was considering everything at the moment. I was in a dark place. Not on anything suicidal, but definitely in a lot of dark times as far as getting away from the game of football, getting away from people.
Coach Pete Carroll said at the start of the week that Adams would have no restrictions. But when asked if the Seahawks will have to limit his snaps in his first game in over a year, defensive coordinator Clint Hurtt said they'll feel that out as they go.
