Multiple media sources confirmed Monday that the Carolina Panthers have brought former NFL safety Mike Adams onto their coaching staff in an assistant role.
The 45-year-old Adams launched his professional football career in 2004 with San Francisco and spent two seasons (2017-18) playing for Carolina. Throughout his 16-year career spanning 228 games, he recorded 935 tackles and 30 interceptions while suiting up for San Francisco (2004-06), Cleveland (2007-11), Denver (2012-13), Indianapolis (2014-16), Carolina, and Houston (2019).
During his time with Indianapolis, Adams earned back-to-back Pro Bowl selections in 2014 and 2015.
Adams will start his coaching journey through the Bill Walsh coaching fellowship program, which aims to increase diversity among NFL coaching staffs. His responsibilities will include working with players during offseason training programs and throughout training camp.
