  • Jets' Tony Adams: Starts 15 games in 2023

    Adams finished the 2023 season with 82 tackles (54 solo) and seven passes defensed, including three interceptions.

    After posting just 17 tackles in his rookie season, Adams played a much larger role in his second NFL campaign. The 24-year-old safety started in all 15 of his appearances and finished strong, with two of Adams' interceptions coming in his last three games. He'll be back with the Jets in 2024, though the team could bring in competition for the starting free safety role.

  • Jets' Tony Adams: Up to 80 tackles in 2023

    Adams tied his second-highest tackle total of the season and shared the team lead Thursday with Jordan Whitehead and C.J. Mosley. The 24-year-old safety has been a pleasant surprise for the Jets in his second NFL season. Adams has made 14 starts, racking up 80 tackles (54 solo) to go with a pair of interceptions.

  • Jets' Tony Adams: Snags INT in narrow win

    Adams notched five tackles (four solo), one pass defensed and one interception during Sunday's 30-28 win over the Commanders.

    Adams now has 72 tackles (49 solo), three passes defensed and two interceptions across 13 appearances this season, career-high marks across the board. Given that he only has one game with less than four tackles this season, Edwards has showcased a floor that makes him worth fantasy consideration in deeper IDP formats heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Browns.

  • Jets' Tony Adams: Game-changing interception in win

    Adams had seven tackles (five solo, one TFL) and an interception in Sunday's 20-14 win over the Eagles.

    With the Eagles needing one first down to end it after the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter, Adams made the play of the game, picking off Jalen Hurts and running it back 45 yards to Philadelphia's eight-yard line. One play later, the Jets scored the go-ahead touchdown and held on for the win. Adams' strong play in the secondary was even more crucial considering the Jets were playing without starting cornerbacks Sauce Gardner (concussion) and D.J. Reed (concussion), who will have an extra week to recover with New York on bye in Week 7.
