Heads to Cleveland The Browns signed Adams on Tuesday.

Impact Adams posted 26 tackles across 10 games for the Bears in 2022, but the majority of his production came over the final seven weeks of the season.

Set for free agency Adams notched two tackles in the Bears' 29-13 loss to the Vikings in Week 18, and ended the season with 26 tackles and a forced fumble over 10 games played.

Impact Adams missed seven games with a calf injury, and in the nine games he played, he had two or fewer tackles in six of them. However, on a per-game basis, this was the most productive year of his five-year career. After playing about 20 snaps per game, he'll likely compete for a depth role next year as an unrestricted free agent.

Suffers calf injury Sunday Adams is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Vikings due to a calf injury, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact Adams missed the team's previous two games due to a hamstring injury but returned to full practices ahead of Week 5 and was cleared for action.

Unlikely to play Sunday Adams (hamstring) is doubtful for Sunday against the Giants.

Impact Adams was able to log a limited practice Friday after logging DNP's on Wednesday and Thursday, but that may not be enough for the 26-year-old to take the field Sunday. Assuming he is out, recent signee to the active roster Joe Thomas will likely be looking at an increased snap count.
