Veteran defensive back Jamal Adams is on the move once again.

Adams was released by the Tennessee Titans on Thursday at his request, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Adams signed with the Titans during the summer and then played sparingly through the early part of the season. He had been dealing with a hip injury and was placed on the reserve/non-football injury list last week. There was speculation that the hip injury might be significant, but Schefter indicated that Adams is healthy enough to play.

The 29-year-old Adams was released by the Seattle Seahawks in March and did not generate much interest. He then signed a 1-year deal with the Titans in July. Adams seemed to be looking forward to playing his preferred role on defense in Tennessee, but things did not work out.

Injuries have been a big issue for Adams in recent years. The three-time Pro Bowl safety missed almost the entire 2022 season because of a torn quadriceps and then dealt with chronic knee pain. He is unlikely to play a big role regardless of where he lands.
