NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Titans are honoring three-time Pro Bowl safety Jamal Adams’ request to be released, his agents told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Thursday.

Adams signed a one-year contract with the Titans in July after being released by the Seattle Seahawks. Joining the Titans gave Adams the opportunity to be reunited with defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson, who served as Adams’ defensive backs coach when he was the No. 6 pick by the New York Jets in the 2017 NFL draft.

While with the Titans, Adams played a total of 20 snaps in three games, including two in his Titans debut against the Jets in Week 2. Adams played a season-high 17 snaps the following week against the Green Bay Packers. But his frustration level peaked after playing just once against the Miami Dolphins in Week 4.

Adams told ESPN on Thursday that he wasn’t frustrated about not being a starter, he just wanted a chance to contribute. That’s why he asked to be released.

According to a team source, the main issue from the Titans’ perspective was a lack of practice. Adams missed significant time during training camp as he battled a hip injury. The Titans placed Adams on the non-football injured list last Saturday.

The veteran defenseman said he is healthy and ready to help the next team he joins.
