Sam’s Film Room: Is Jamal Adams being unfairly blamed?

Back in 2020, the Seattle Seahawks traded two firsts, a third, and safety Bradley McDougald to the New York Jets. In return, they received Jamal Adams and a future fourth rounder. At the time of this trade, I was actually very supportive of this move. The Seahawks desperately needed help in their secondary and Jamal Adams was coming off his second all-pro recognition.

The big question back then was whether or not Pete Carroll and Ken Norton Jr. could make the most of his obvious talents. Would they put him in a defined role?
