Vikings linebacker Jamal Adams sustained a right knee injury during the preseason game against the Giants on August 15, 2026, which will sideline him for the entire season. Head coach Kevin O’Connell described the injury as “not good,” marking another setback for Adams, who had previously struggled with injuries in recent seasons. Adams, a former Jets safety and three-time Pro Bowler, had been making an impact in training camp and was adapting to both safety and linebacker roles. His absence will require adjustments to Minnesota’s defense under coordinator Brian Flores.
