The greatest athlete of all time preferred to spend his leisure hours drinking brown liquor, playing blackjack and enjoying the company of women. Had we the same resources, we’d likely be spending our days off in much the same way. However, some folks have a different idea about what constitutes a good time on a Friday night. Why a professional athlete would maintain a social media account is beyond our reckoning, but it’s a different generation.
For example, Seahawks strong safety Jamal Adams is trending on Twitter right now for all the wrong reasons. We have long-since made peace with the fact that Adams is not the greatest coverage safety in the world, and accepted that he impacts the game in other ways. For example, Adams posted the highest pass rush grade on the team on Thursday night and made his usual couple of stops behind the line of scrimmage. However, there was also the obligatory lapse in coverage – this time coming against tight end Jake Ferguson in the end zone. Now, Adams is getting roasted for his coverage skills yet again.
It doesn’t end there, though. Apparently one of the folks who have needled Adams online for his coverage lapses is a Jets beat reporter. For some reason Adams decided to respond in a bizarre and cruel way, mocking a picture of the reporter’s wife on his Instagram account. Adams has since deleted the post, but he’s still getting blasted online for both his behavior and his poor performance…
Ferg told Jamal Adams give me your lunch money .. oh you got new shoes? Run me that too 😂 https://t.co/Xd4K1xKKh3 pic.twitter.com/Fy2yLumePd

I see Jamal Adams is trending once again. Funny how he only trends because of controversy or giving up big plays…
Remember this terrific play by Kupp on Adams in the 2020 Wild Card round?

I’ve covered a lot of players through the years. Never met any who was more of a phony than Jamal Adams. I always thought he was a bad guy. Today he proved he is even worse than I thought.

The Jamal Adams trade was a certified catastrophic disaster on day one. Purely on the compensation terms alone. The injuries? Unlucky, sure.
But going after some dude’s family just because he can’t tolerate criticism online is absolute loser behavior.

Jamal Adams just stood on the field and let Ferguson stare him down after scoring the game winning TD in his face. Waited til the next day and then took that anger out on….. a Jets beat reporter's wife on twitter. What a bitch lol #luv

For a few brief hours yesterday, #Jets Twitter—from the Zach truthers to the Fire Saleh folks—put aside their differences and were united with one goal in mind: Slander Jamal Adams.
I gotta say it warmed my heart to see everyone come together like that pic.twitter.com/sIFQG14Eg3

Do you know what kind of amazing piece of shit you have to be to rally Jets twitter around any of their beat writers? Jamal Adams is on another level…

Jamal Adams was cold for posting bro wife because Jake Ferguson was cooking him on Thursday. No need to go there. Should've kept it football.

Jamal Adams is a known loser. That’s pretty much all he ever does.

Jamal Adams called a reporters wife ugly and media is flipping out lol was it nice? No, but they calling for this mans head 😂 Athletes are literally the most emotionally driven people on the planet and y’all surprised when they react poorly to criticisms written daily about them

Jamal Adams blocked me years ago when he said the #Jets caused him to get "onset depression", like that's how depression works
He was a bad person then, & clearly he still is
