Former Panthers safety Mike Adams is walking away from football. He just made the announcement that he’s retiring from the NFL on Good Morning Football.
Adams had an inspiring, storybook career. After going undrafted, he got started as a backup for the 49ers. From there, he worked his way up and became a Pro Bowler twice, making the team in 2014 and 2015.
After San Francisco, he made stops in Cleveland, Denver and Indianapolis before landing in Carolina, where he played from 2017-2018. He finished out his career in Houston, appearing in just six games this past season.
All in all, Adams appared in a remarkable 228 regular season games, totaling 708 solo tackles, 30 interceptions and 90 pass breakups.
Hats off to a classy individual and a heck of a career.
