Summary

Jamal Adams has been the star of the Seattle defense for the last two years, and, with the exit of Bobby Wagner, he will now be asked to be their leader too. His 2021 was very different than his 2020, even before the Week 13 shoulder injury that ended his season early. In 2020, Adams was asked to play closer to the line of scrimmage and used in many blitz packages. As a result, the safety led the team that season with 9.5 sacks. It was the most sacks by a defensive back in NFL history. He returned to a more traditional role in 2021, recording 87 total tackles and two interceptions, with no sacks, in 12 games. His 2022 fantasy value will depend on how the team utilizes him. He is still a top-10 safety without the sacks but he may be the best defensive back in fantasy if playing in the box again.
