Seahawks cut three-time Pro Bowl safeties Jamal Adams, Quandre Diggs, per reports
View Date:2024-12-24 01:05:30
The "Prez" era has ended in the Pacific Northwest.
The Seattle Seahawks cut safety Jamal Adams Tuesday, along with fellow defensive back Quandre Diggs, according to multiple reports.
"Forever grateful," Diggs posted on social media.
Adams, a former All-Pro with the New York Jets, never played a full season with the Seahawks. His best year in Seattle came in 2020, when Adams racked up 9.5 sacks in 12 games en route to his third career Pro Bowl berth. Injuries persisted, however. Shoulder surgery cut his 2021 campaign short. Adams suffered a torn quad tendon, ending his year, in the first half of the 2022 season opener. He played in nine games last season.
Diggs, 31, started his career in Detroit and was traded to the Seahawks in the middle of the 2019 season. He made three straight Pro Bowls (2020-22) with the team and has 24 career interceptions.

Revisiting Jamal Adams trade between Jets, Seahawks
The Jets selected Adams with the sixth overall pick of the 2017 draft. Following his third pro season, his All-Pro campaign in 2019, Adams sought a contract extension.
The Jets instead traded him to the Seahawks as 2020 training camp began for a pair of first-round picks. (New York also gave up a 2022 fourth-rounder, which became defensive lineman Coby Bryant.)
The 2022 first-rounder the Jets received became wideout Garrett Wilson.
