Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams is set to miss the rest of the season.

Adams had a torn labrum and "additional significant shoulder damage" in the win over the San Francisco 49ers, according to Ian Rapoport. He needs surgery that will shorten his season.

Adams had shoulder surgery after he injured it last year.

Adams has appeared in at least 12 games in each of his five seasons. He played all 16 games in the two previous campaigns.
He finished the 2020 season with a career-high 9.5 sacks in addition to three passes defended, one forced fumble, 83 tackles, 11 tackles for a loss and 14 quarterback hits.
His 2020 performance helped him earn a four-year, $70 million deal in August, making him the highest-paid safety in football with an average annual value of $17.5 million per year.
Adams has had a good season in the past, recording five passes defended, 87 tackles, four tackles for a loss, two quarterback hits and a career-high two interceptions. He didn't register a sack.

Ryan Neal, Quandre Diggs, and Ugo Amadi are expected to step up in the secondary. There's not much the Seattle can do to turn things around since they are last in the West.
