Seahawks safety Jamal Adams expected to practice in full this week

Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams is expected to practice in full Week 9 after sitting out with a groin injury and illness.

The Seattle Seahawks gave up major draft capital to acquire star safety Jamal Adams ahead of the season but he’s been hindered by a lingering groin injury he sustained Week 3. In addition, Adams fell ill last week and was unable to get in enough time on the practice field to be able to suit up against the 49ers.

Coach Pete Carroll is expecting Adams to return to duty on Wednesday.

“He’s going to go full practice this week and get back into action,” Carroll said during his Monday radio show on 710 ESPN Seattle. “He was going to try that last week and it just didn’t work out right, he got ill. He should be able to go. We won’t know until Thursday about Friday, just as we do it.”

For now, Adams will be day to day as he adjusts to the higher workload.

“He needs the work just to get out there and get on the field,” Carroll continued. “He’s studied like crazy, he was in all of the walkthroughs he could be in during this past week in an attempt to get ready. So we’ll be really excited to have him back. He is so pumped up to get back.

“He’s just dying to get out there with the fellas, so we’re really looking forward to it.”
