Vikings sign linebacker Jamal Adams to one-year contract

The Minnesota Vikings have signed linebacker Jamal Adams to a one-year deal, finalizing the agreement on Tuesday morning. Adams, a former Seattle Seahawks defender, embarks on his sixth NFL team. His prior stints were marked by injuries, although he set a record for sacks by a defensive back while with the Seahawks. The Vikings' new general manager, Nolan Teasley, previously worked in Seattle during Adams' tenure there, contributing to the familiarity. This signing comes after Adams’ brief time with the Las Vegas Raiders last year.
