Vikings place veteran Jamal Adams on injured reserve, sign CB Bryce Phillips
Minnesota Vikings linebacker Jamal Adams was placed on injured reserve on Monday, a day after suffering a right knee injury during a preseason game. The 30-year-old, a three-time Pro Bowl selection, is set to undergo season-ending surgery. Adams suffered the injury in his first game with the Vikings following his signing just before the start of training camp.
To replace Adams, the Vikings signed cornerback Bryce Phillips. Phillips, who was an undrafted free agent with the Kansas City Chiefs after the 2026 NFL draft, joined the Vikings in a move to fill the void left by Adams. Notably, Phillips' brother, Clark Phillips III, currently plays cornerback for the Atlanta Falcons after a standout college career at Utah.
