After missing Week 1 due to a hip injury, the Tennessee Titans welcomed safety Jamal Adams back to the practice field on Wednesday. Today, the Titans are one step closer to seeing the veteran in action and this could not come at a better time or against a better team.

Adams’ made a name for himself in the league with the New York Jets, who drafted No. 6 overall in the 2017 NFL draft. Unfortunately, that marriage didn’t last, and he forced his way out of New York via a pre-training camp trade four years ago.
It was an ugly exit, as he publicly criticized every aspect of the Jets organization, from the coaching to the ownership. But today, the former Pro Bowl safety speaks differently about the organization.
“I respect the hell out of the Jets. Absolutely,” Adams told reporters after practice on Wednesday.
Since leaving the Jets, Adams has battled injuries and has not been the same intimidating force he was early in his career. Signed by the Titans as a free agent, the former All-Pro is ready for anything the Titans staff asks of him.
The first step is to get healthy and back on the field, and that is what the new Titans safety intends to do in his Titans debut in Week 2 against his former team.
