Vikings Safety Jamal Adams Carted Off with Knee Injury in Preseason DebutNext

Minnesota Vikings safety Jamal Adams was carted off during his preseason debut after sustaining a knee injury while covering a receiver. The 30-year-old veteran played only 11 defensive snaps before being evaluated and taken to the locker room. Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell expressed concern, highlighting Adams' passion and leadership, and confirmed the team’s support as they anticipate his absence and the need for others to step up.
