New Tennessee Titans safety Jamal Adams saw his career hit the skids with the Seattle Seahawks and is out to prove that he can still make a big impact on the football field.

But Adams says he isn’t out to prove that to anybody but himself, and the chip on his shoulder is as prevalent as ever.

“I’ve always had a chip on my shoulder, for a long, long time,” Adams  said on The Official Titans Podcast. “For me it’s more so just, I’m not trying to prove anybody wrong, I’m more so trying to prove myself right. I’m trying to get back out there to prove to myself that I’m still that guy and I still can play. Whether anybody believe in me or not, as long as I believe in myself that’s what matters.”

Injuries were the biggest issue for Adams in Seattle, but he also saw his quality of play dip, especially in coverage, where he had the two worst season of his career in that department.

Adams enters a familiar situation in Nashville, where he’ll play under defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson, who was his defensive backs coach during his days with the New York Jets.

It’s also a good fit for Adams, as his style of play matches the aggressiveness Wilson wants from his defense.
