The Jets placed Adams (groin) on injured reserve Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Adams will miss the remainder of the regular season due to a groin injury sustained during New York's loss to the Jaguars in Week 15. The team also placed safety Isaiah Oliver (knee) on injured reserve Monday. As such, Keidron Smith, Dean Clark and Jarius Monroe will all be candidates to step into expanded roles on defense at safety alongside Malachi Moore.

Adams (groin) was considered as a non-participant at the Jets' walkthrough practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Adams suffered a groin injury in the team's Week 15 loss to the Jaguars, and he has now opened the week as a DNP. The free safety will have two more chances to return to practice before Sunday's matchup with the Saints.

Adams (groin) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

EDGE Analysis

Adams aggravated a groin injury during Sunday's game, which is severe enough for him not to return. Dean Clark will remain in the game at safety the rest of the way.

Adams (groin) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

EDGE Analysis

Adams didn't play in Week 14 against the Dolphins due to a groin injury, and it appears he may have aggravated the injury during Sunday's game. Dean Clark is in line for more defensive snaps at safety for as long as Adams is out of the game.

Adams (groin) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Adams suffered a groin injury Week 13 against Atlanta and missed this past Sunday's loss to the Dolphins. However, his return to full practice participation Wednesday suggests that he should be able to return to action against Jacksonville this weekend. Isaiah Oliver logged a start at safety in Adams' stead versus Miami, but Oliver will likely return to a rotational role should Adams indeed be able to suit up Sunday.

Adams (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Adams will be inactive after being downgraded to doubtful Saturday afternoon. The safety didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday during Week 14 prep, but he logged a full session Friday, putting him on track to return to action next week. Isaiah Oliver is expected to start in Adams' place opposite Malachi Moore, but the Jets also signed Jordan Clark this week, plus they elevated Tre Brown and Nik Needham from the practice squad.

Adams (groin) has been downgraded to doubtful for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Adams logged a full practice Friday after being unable to participate in both sessions earlier in the week. The full practice was a promising sign for the safety, but the downgrade to doubtful implies the veteran suffered a setback in his recovery. If Adams is unable to suit up, Isaiah Oliver is next in line to start at free safety opposite Malachi Moore. The Jets' secondary has also received an influx of new help for Sunday's contest with the signing of Jordan Clark and the elevation from the practice squad of defensive backs Tre Brown and Nik Needham.

Adams (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Adams opened the week with back-to-back DNPs due to a groin injury he sustained during the Jets' Week 13 win over the Falcons. He was able to practice in full Friday to earn the questionable tag for Week 14, and his status may not be officially known until the Jets announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Isaiah Oliver would be in line to start at safety alongside Malachi Moore if Adams is not cleared to play.

Adams (groin) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Adams sustained this groin injury during last week's win over the Falcons. The veteran safety started each of the last four games and produced 23 tackles (16 solo), two pass breakups and 1.0 sacks. If he can't shake this injury for this Sunday's game versus the Dolphins, Isaiah Oliver should start at free safety.

Adams (groin) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against then Falcons, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Adams is being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game after sustaining a groin injury. Isaiah Oliver will step into a larger role at safety alongside Malachi Moore for as long as Adams is out of the game.
