Josh Adams News
Running back Josh Adams has inked a practice squad deal with the New Orleans Saints, per Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football. Adams appeared in one game earlier this season with the Jets, but he did not log an offensive snap. An undrafted free agent out of Notre Dame, Adams' most extended action came during his rookie year in 2018 with the Eagles when he appeared in 14 games (five starts) and logged 120 carries for 511 yards and three rushing touchdowns. Adams' path to fantasy relevance is an arduous one, as Alvin Kamara remains at the top of the Saints' backfield with Mark Ingram II and Dwayne Washington also in the mix.
Former New York Jets running back Josh Adams cleared waivers on Monday and decided not to re-sign to the team's practice squad, according to a source. Adams was a healthy scratch in the first two weeks of the season and played just 11 special teams snaps in Week 3. There are at least a few running back-needy out there that could give Adams an opportunity, but we'd be surprised if he lands somewhere and has an immediate on-field impact, let alone a fantasy one. The Chicago Bears are one team that comes to mind after lead back David Montgomery suffered a hyperextended knee in Week 4 that could keep him out for multiple weeks. If Adams lands somewhere else quickly, he'll likely start on a practice squad and will need to prove himself before earning a promotion.
New York Jets running back Josh Adams has been a forgotten man during the preseason and in training camp. Despite that, he made a strong impression on the team during Friday's preseason finale against the Philadelphia Eagles. He rushed 12 times for 62 yards and hauled in three receptions for 17 yards through the air. Those 62 yards on the ground was a team-high in this contest. However, Adams is currently listed as the No. 5 back on the roster. The Jets plan to use a running back committee to begin the season. It's uncertain which players are going to be involved in that. Regardless, it's unlikely Adams has any fantasy value heading into the season despite a decent showing here.
