Adams (neck) is listed as active for Thursday's game against the Texans.

Adams is out there if you need him Thursday as an IDP, on the heels of back-to-back eight-tackle efforts for the Colts.

Adams was a non-participant at Tuesday's practice due to a neck injury.

Adams wasn't on Monday's injury report, so he may have suffered an injury at practice. With 24 tackles and an interception, he's on pace for numbers that would look similar to last year's. If Adams misses Thursday's game against the Texans, either Clayton Geathers or Colt Anderson will get the start.

Adams started at strong safety and had four total tackles in Sunday's loss at Buffalo.

Adams got nearly all the snaps at strong safety, so he'll have the opportunity to duplicate his 2014 career year. In addition to holding up well in coverage, he provided career-high marks in tackles (87), interceptions (five) and passes defensed (11), adding a pair of forced fumbles and a pair of fumble recoveries.

Adams has re-signed with the Colts for two more years, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Set to turn 34 in March, Adams proved in 2014 that he still has plenty left to give. In addition to holding up well in coverage, he provided career-high marks in tackles (87), interceptions (five) and passes defensed (11), adding a pair of forced fumbles and a pair of fumble recoveries. Statistics don't usually tell the true story for safeties, but Adams really is an impressive player.

Adams was named to the Pro Bowl with Seattle safeties Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor playing in the Super Bowl, ESPN reports.

Adams was a ten-year journeymen before signing with the Colts but took over the starting strong safety role and responded with five interceptions and 87 tackles in 16 games.

Adams (back) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Browns.

Adams returned to practice in full Friday, but the questionable tag suggested his status had been iffy. Over three weeks since the Colts' Week 10 bye, Adams has logged 22 combined tackles, four passes defensed and two interceptions.

Adams (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, the Colts' official site reports.

After not practicing on Wednesday and Thursday, Adams -- who has racked up 66 tackles and four picks in 12 games to date -- participated fully Friday, though his questionable designation suggests that he's not a lock to suit up Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff.

Adams (back) did not practice Thursday, the team's official web site reports.

The Colts could be without two key members of the secondary this week as both Adams and Vonte Davis (concussion) missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday.

Adams had 11 total tackles and two interceptions in Sunday's loss to New England.

Adams continues to thrive in the starting strong safety role as he has four interceptions and 5.5 total tackles per game.

Adams started at strong safety had 11 total tackles in Sunday's loss to Pittsburgh.

Adams has graded well in pass coverage but hadn't produced high tackle totals until this week.

Adams started at strong safety and had six total tackles in Sunday's loss at Denver.

Adams played almost every snap on defense, so it looks like the strong safety role won't be a time share with Sergio Brown and Colt Anderson.

Adams will start at strong safety this week against Denver, ESPN reports.

He beat out Sergio Brown and Colt Anderson for the starting job after Delano Howell went on IR with a neck injury.

Adams may be the leading candidate to start at strong safety with Delano Howell's status for the regular season in doubt due to neck injury, ESPN reports.

Adams is competing with Sergio Brown and Colt Anderson for the starting job, but Adams has the most experience with 73 career starts at safety. It's also possible the Colts could acquire a veteran late in training camp to add to the mix.

Mike Adams has the early edge for the Colts' free safety job.

Delano Howell entered OTAs as the favorite to replace Antoine Bethea, but beat reporter Mike Wells now considers Adams the leading candidate. A ten-year veteran, Adams was an every-down player for Denver from Week 12 on last season. If he wins the starting job over Howell, SS LaRon Landry could be asked to play more deep coverage. The Colts' secondary is a 2014 concern.

Colts signed S Mike Adams.

Adams is a ten-year veteran who will bring some much needed experience to the Colts' secondary. Adams has spent time with the 49ers, Browns and most recently the Broncos. He played well in Denver, starting 27 games over two seasons including every game of the teams' 2013 playoff-run. He will compete with Sergio Brown for the starting safety spot opposite entrenched starter LaRon Landry.

Free agent S Mike Adams said he's anxious about getting a job for this season.

Adams, now 33, was an every-down player for the Broncos from Week 12 on last season. "I can't fathom me going out like this," he said. "I can't imagine losing a big game and not even having another opportunity to step on the field. That's why the anxiety is picking up with me." Adams is not expected to get another chance with the Broncos with Rahim Moore healthy and T.J. Ward in town. His career is on thin ice.

Steelers agreed to terms with No. 56 overall pick OT Mike Adams on a four-year contract.

Adams is the fourth Steelers' draft pick to sign. Coach Mike Tomlin has hinted Adams will be given an opportunity to earn the team's starting left tackle job. Adams has ideal blindside size at 6-foot-7, 323 pounds, but questions about his strength and quickness led many draftniks to peg him as a right tackle. Adams will compete with Marcus Gilbert at a position that was a source of great frustration for the Steelers in 2011.

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin confirmed that second-round pick Mike Adams will practice exclusively at left tackle this offseason.

Some draftniks pegged Adams as a future right tackle, but he was strictly a left tackle at Ohio State and will begin his Pittsburgh career there. If Adams has a good spring and summer, he could open the season as Ben Roethlisberger's blind side protector with Marcus Gilbert staying at right tackle and Willie Colon kicking to left guard. David DeCastro will be the right guard.

Steelers selected Ohio State OT Mike Adams with the No. 56 overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft.

A very different prospect than first-round pick David DeCastro, Adams has had a difficult postseason. First, he had an inconsistent Senior Bowl performance after a similar career at Ohio State. Then Adams only completed 19 bench press reps at the Combine and tested positive for marijuana. There is no doubting Adams possesses an ideal tackle build, but his reaction quickness and strength are lacking. The Steelers have a future starter on their hands if they set him straight.

NFL Network's Jason La Canfora reports that Ohio State OT Mike Adams tested positive for marijuana at the NFL Combine.

These leaks happen every year. While they sometimes don't torpedo draft stock, it's another red flag for Adams -- a player who already struggles on game tape. We wouldn't expect him to be drafted in the first round. Per La Canfora, Adams has been "upfront" with teams about the drug test, and he has already completed a counseling program. Look for Adams to be a mid-second-round pick.
