The big news on Thursday was the fact the Tennessee Titans finally signed a free agent safety. Which normally would have been with massive cheers and parades in the street except it wasn’t the safety everyone thought it would be because it was Jamal Adams. I was perplexed that this was the move they chose to make with so many, on paper at least, better safeties available. Even if they have not reached the highest of highs that Adams has, they at least were more versatile and less risky.

I still have a healthy amount of skepticism about the signing and the player, but after listening to his spot on the OTP, I went from low risk, low reward, confusing move to more of a low risk, medium reward, okay I get it. I put medium reward because I like to keep things realistic by the way. People that have said low risk, high reward are raising a massive bar that is improbable Adams will ever reach. Today, I am going to talk through various facets of the Adams trade, the good, the bad, the ugly, and everything in between. There are some surprising stats, some good insight, and background on a player that many are likely just going to be wrong about this season and have egg on their face.
