2025 Fantasy Outlook
Adams started 26 of the 30 games in which he appeared over the past two seasons, averaging 83 tackles and 5.5 passes defensed. With offseason addition Andre Cisco expected to man one of the starting safety spots, Adams will compete with rookie fourth-round pick Malachi Moore for the other, though the loser of that competition will likely still contribute in packages that call for extra defensive backs.

Adams (groin) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against Buffalo.
ANALYSIS
Adams was forced to leave in the first half of Sunday's game due to a groin injury, which is severe enough for him to be ruled out the rest of the way. Malachi Moore and Isaiah Oliver are candidates to work with the Jets' first-team defense alongside Andre Cisco at safety due to Adams' injury.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Adams signed with the Jets as an undrafted free agent out of Illinois in 2022 and proceeded to break out in 2023, starting 15 games while notching 82 tackles (54 solo) and three interceptions among his five passes defensed. Two of those interceptions came in his last three appearances. The 25-year-old Adams is penciled in as the team's starting free safety heading into 2024.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could lose starting spot to rookie
SNew York Jets
June 8, 2025
Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic believes rookie fourth-round pick Malachi Moore has a chance to beat out Adams for a starting safety role in 2025.
ANALYSIS
Moore has looked good early in OTAs. His measurables don't stand out, but Moore has been lauded for his football IQ as a four-year starter at Alabama. Adams has made 26 starts over the past two seasons, but that was under a different coaching staff. Free-agent addition Andre Cisco is expected to assume a starting role, leaving Moore and Adams to battle for the other starting spot at safety.
