No Colts player logged more more special teams snaps last year than Matt Adams, who appeared in 351 plays. Now he’s joining the Bears.
The team signed Adams, a linebacker by trade, to a one-year deal Saturday. A seventh-round pick out of Houston in 2018, Adams spent his first four seasons playing for the Colts, where new Bears head coach Matt Eberflus was the defensive coordinator. He joins defensive end Al-Quadin Muhammad, coordinator Alan Williams and three position coaches as former Colts employees to follow Eberflus to Chicago.
The 6 foot, 229-pounder has started nine games at linebacker, but none in the last two years.
