Paulson Adebo Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Commanders vs Giants game on Sunday with our National Football League injury report.Dec 2, 2025
Struggles in return
Adebo tallied 10 tackles (eight solo) during the Giants' loss versus the Patriots on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Adebo had been sidelined for the past five games with a sprained MCL and struggled in his return, as Drake Maye completed nine of his 11 pass attempts for 95 yards and a touchdown when targeting him. However, Adebo did manage to rack up double-digit tackles for the second time this season. The 26-year-old will look to have a bounce-back performance Week 15 versus Washington following the team's upcoming bye.
Nov 29, 2025
Returning Monday
Adebo (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Patriots, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The Stanford product missed the Giants' last five games due to a sprained MCL, but following a week of limited practice sessions, he'll return Monday night. Adebo is one of New York's top boundary corners, recording 48 total tackles and four passes defended across just seven appearances this season. Now fully healthy, he's expected to start opposite Cor'Dale Flott in the Giants' secondary in Week 13.
Nov 27, 2025
Estimated as limited Thursday
Adebo (knee) was a limited participant in the Giants' estimated practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo missed his fifth consecutive game last Sunday due to a sprained MCL, so the limited participation in practice is a good sign for the potential return of the starting cornerback. Adebo will need to continue to string practices together to have a chance to suit up in a primetime Monday night game against the Patriots.
Nov 21, 2025
Missing fifth straight game
Adebo (knee) won't play Sunday against the Lions, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo will miss a fifth consecutive game due to a sprained MCL in his knee. His next chance to play will be Dec. 1 against the Patriots. More playing time could be available for Jarrick Bernard-Converse and Korie Black against the Lions in Adebo's absence.
Nov 19, 2025
Misses Wednesday's practice
Adebo (knee) will not practice Wednesday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo has missed the Giants' last four games due to a sprained MCL, and Wednesday's DNP suggests he could be in jeopardy of missing the Week 12 matchup against the Lions. The Stanford product likely needs to upgrade to at least limited practice Thursday or Friday in order to have a chance at suiting up Sunday. If he's sidelined for the fifth consecutive game, expect Korie Black to have an expanded role in the Giants' secondary.
Nov 16, 2025
Not playing Week 11 after all
Adebo (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Green Bay, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
After missing New York's previous three games due to a sprained MCL, Adebo was initially deemed active for Sunday's contest. However, he felt some discomfort in his knee while warming up and was consequently downgraded to out. Deonte Banks and Cor'Dale Flott will thus start as the Giants' outside cornerbacks Sunday.
Nov 16, 2025
Set to return Sunday
Adebo (knee) is active for Sunday's Week 11 game against Green Bay, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo had missed New York's past three game dues to an MCL sprain in his knee. He was able to log three limited practice sessions this week and is now cleared to return to action Sunday. Adebo's return should be a big boost to the Giants' secondary and will likely result in reduced defensive snaps for Korie Black.
Nov 14, 2025
Questionable for Sunday
Adebo (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Packers.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old has missed the Giants' last three games due to a sprained MCL, but following a week of limited practice sessions, he's got a chance to return Sunday. Adebo has appeared in seven games this season, recording 48 total tackles and four passes defended. If he returns for the Week 11 matchup, he'll likely operate as one of New York's top boundary corners.
Nov 12, 2025
Limited to begin week
Adebo (knee) was estimated to be a limited practice participant Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo has been sidelined for each of the last three games with a sprained MCL. This marks his first practice participation since suffering the injury, so it appears possible he could return in Week 11 against the Packers.
Nov 7, 2025
Won't return in Week 10
Adebo (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old didn't practice all week and is now in line to miss his third consecutive game due to a sprained MCL. While Adebon remains sidelined in Week 10, expect Jarrick Bernard-Converse and Korie Black to play expanded roles in the Giants' secondary.
Nov 5, 2025
DNP to open week
Adebo (knee) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo is recovering from a sprained MCL he sustained against the Broncos in Week 7, which has prevented him from practicing or playing in the Giants' last two games. He's unlikely to be available for Sunday's game against the Bears unless he returns to practice Thursday or Friday in at least a limited capacity.
Oct 31, 2025
Ruled out for Week 9
Adebo (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo is dealing with an MCL injury and will miss his second straight contest. Deonte Banks logged 100 percent of the defensive snaps last Sunday against the Eagles and will continue to fill in as a starting cornerback.
Oct 29, 2025
Not practicing Wednesday
Adebo (knee) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo was already expected to miss multiple weeks with the sprained MCL he suffered in Week 7 at Denver, so it's not a surprise to see he's still not in football shape just yet. Unless he manages to return to practice Thursday or Friday, he figures to be sidelined in Week 9 versus the 49ers.
Oct 28, 2025
Dealing with MCL sprain
Adebo (knee) has been diagnosed with a sprained MCL and is expected to miss multiple weeks, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo missed Week 8 against the Eagles and appears likely to miss more game action. With Adebou out against Philadelphia, Deonte Banks logged 100 percent of the defensive snaps at cornerback, followed by Dru Phillips, Korie Black and Cor'Dale Flott.
Oct 24, 2025
Ruled out for Week 8
Adebo (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo injured his knee last Sunday against the Broncos and will now miss this divisional matchup. With Adebo out, Deonte Banks and Nic Jones would likely benefit in terms of playing time at cornerback.
Oct 22, 2025
Misses Wednesday's practice
Adebo (knee) will not practice Wednesday, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
ANALYSIS
The veteran corner sustained a knee injury in the third quarter of the Week 7 loss to the Broncos and is now considered day-to-day. Adebo has been an integral part of the Giants' defense in his first season with the team, recording 48 total tackles and four passes defended across seven contests. If he's forced to miss his first game of the season in the Week 8 matchup against the Eagles, Deonte Banks and Art Green would likely see increased snaps in the Giants' secondary.
Oct 19, 2025
Exits game with knee injury
Adebo (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Denver, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo sustained a knee injury in the third quarter, and it remains to be seen whether he'll be cleared to return. Deonte Banks should see more snaps at outside corner while Adebo is having his knee injury evaluated by medical staff.
Oct 17, 2025
Past shoulder issue
Adebo (shoulder) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The first-year Giant logged limited practice sessions Thursday and Friday due to a shoulder injury, but it appears he's moved past the issue in time to play in Week 7. Adebo has appeared in all six of New York's games thus far, recording 44 total tackles and four passes defended across 416 defensive snaps. Now back at full health, he's expected to operate as one of the team's top outside cornerbacks Sunday.
Oct 16, 2025
Limited due to shoulder Thursday
Adebo (shoulder) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo has been healthy all season up to this point, so Friday's limited participation is unlikely to be a point of concern. The starting cornerback could avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos, especially if he upgrades back to full participation Friday.
Oct 10, 2025
Tallies seven stops
Adebo recorded seven tackles (five solo) in Thursday's 34-17 win over the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Adebo has played 100 percent of defensive snaps in every game this season, and he managed his highest tackle total since Week 3. He's second on the team behind only Bobby Okereke with 44 tackles on the campaign.
Oct 6, 2025
Records nine stops Sunday
Adebo posted nine tackles (six solo) in a Week 5 loss to New Orleans on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Adebo finished second on the Giants in stops behind Bobby Okereke (10). Through five weeks, Adebo has notched 37 stops along with four defensed passes.
Sep 30, 2025
Tallies four tackles Sunday
Adebo tallied four tackles (three solo) Sunday in the Giants' win over the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Adebo continues to make an impact on defense for the Giants, as he's yet to miss a defensive snap this season. The 26-year-old has gotten off to a strong start since signing with the team in March, logging 31 tackles (26 solo) across his first four appearances.
Sep 23, 2025
Productive again in Week 3 loss
Adebo posted seven tackles (six solo) and a defensed pass Sunday in a loss to Kansas City.
ANALYSIS
Adebo finished second on New York in tackles, logging one less than Bobby Okereke. It's been a strong start to Adebo's tenure as a Giant, as he has racked up 27 stops and three defensed passes through three weeks while being on the field for all of the team's defensive snaps so far.
Sep 15, 2025
Racks up 13 stops in Week 2
Adebo posted 13 tackles (11 solo) and a defensed pass Sunday in an overtime loss to the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Adebo led New York in tackles while playing all 89 of the team's defensive snaps. The former Saint has tallied 20 stops through two weeks, making him a top IDP option at his position. Adebo's career high in regular-season tackles is 76, which he tallied in 2023 with the Saints.
Sep 9, 2025
Strong performance in loss
Adebo tallied seven tackles (six solo) and a pass deflection Sunday during the Giants' loss versus Washington.
ANALYSIS
Adebo had a strong performance in his first game with the Giants as he finished tied with Jevon Holland for the second most tackles on the team and also held Terry McLaurin to just two catches for 27 yards. Adebo will look to build off this strong performance and keep producing during the team's Week 2 matchup against the Cowboys, where he will likely be tasked with guarding CeeDee Lamb.
Mar 10, 2025
Agrees to terms with G-Men
The Giants are in line to sign Adebo to a contract, ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo, a 2021 third-round pick, entrenched himself as an immediate starter with the Saints but was limited to just seven appearances in 2024 before suffering a broken femur. The standout corner required surgery to address the injury, but he was deemed ready for normal offseason activities late February. With his new team, Adebo will immediately slot in as a starter across from Deonte Banks, upgrading New York's secondary substantially.
Feb 25, 2025
Deemed healthy
Adebo (leg) is healthy and should be a full participant in offseason activities, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo suffered a season-ending leg injury in Week 7 and underwent surgery. Four months out of surgery, Adebo is apparently healthy and ready for a mostly normal offseason. He's scheduled to be a free agent next month and could be looking at a sizable pay day after registering three interceptions in seven games before getting hurt. Adebo turns 26 years old in July.
Jan 6, 2025
Confident for camp
Adebo was in good spirits Monday regarding his recovery from a broken femur suffered in October, and he's confident he'll be ready for training camp, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo has been out of action since Week 7 and underwent season-ending surgery Oct. 18. The Stanford was amid a breakout season when he suffered the injury, finishing his 2024 campaign with 52 combined tackles, and three interceptions, including 10 passes defended in seven contests.
Oct 22, 2024
Officially moved to IR
The Saints placed Adebo (upper leg) on injured reserve Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Adebo suffered a broken femur during the Saints' Week 7 loss to the Broncos on Thursday. He underwent season-ending surgery Friday, and he'll shift his focus toward being fully healthy for the 2025 campaign. Adebo's move to IR makes room on the 53-man roster for the Saints' signing of wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling.
Oct 18, 2024
Undergoes season-ending surgery
Adebo (upper leg) underwent season-ending surgery Friday morning to address a broken right femur sustained during Thursday's 33-10 loss to the Broncos, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo is facing an expected recovery timetable of 4-5 months, which Schefter notes could allow him to be fully healthy by March, when he's scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent. The 2021 third-round pick was in the middle of a breakout season with the Saints, but he'll now need to turn his focus toward making a full recovery for the 2025 campaign. The loss of Adebo figures to propel rookie first-round pick Kool-Aid McKinstry into a starting role alongside Marshon Lattimore (hamstring).
Oct 17, 2024
Suffers broken femur
Adebo suffered a broken femur in Thursday's 33-10 loss to the Broncos, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo suffered an apparent serious injury in the first half of Thursday's loss and was carted off the field in an air cast. After being taken to a local hospital for further evaluation, he was diagnosed with a femur injury and will almost certainly be out of the season. The development is tough luck for Adebo, who was in the midst of a breakout season and will be headed to free agency this offseason.
Oct 17, 2024
Carted off
Adebo (knee) will not return to Thursday's game against the Broncos, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
ANALYSIS
The cornerback was carted off with his right leg in an air cast, per Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com. Adebo still leads the Saints with six tackles (three solo) in Thursday's game. Kool-Aid McKinstry came in for him.
Oct 14, 2024
Productive in Week 6
Adebo tallied 10 tackles (eight solo) and intercepted a pass Sunday in a loss to Tampa Bay.
ANALYSIS
New Orleans' defense gave up 325 passing yards and four passing touchdowns against Baker Mayfield, but it also picked off three of Mayfield's passes. Adebo nabbed one of those, intercepting a pass intended for Mike Evans and returning it 20 yards in the second quarter. Adebo has had a keen eye for the ball this season with three pickoffs through six weeks, and Sunday also marked his third double-digit tackle performance of the campaign.
Sep 30, 2024
Secures interception in loss
Adebo recorded 12 total tackles (10 solo), an interception and three passes defensed in Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Falcons.
ANALYSIS
Adebo was able to reach double-digit stops for the second straight week while also picking off Kirk Cousins in the first quarter for his second interception of the season. The cornerback has now compiled 32 total tackles (28 solo), two interceptions and seven passes defensed over four games in 2024.
Sep 23, 2024
Secures 10 tackles in loss
Adebo recorded 10 solo tackles and a pass defensed in Sunday's 15-12 loss to Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Adebo was a busy man in Week 3, leading the team with 10 takedowns in the contest. The cornerback has now produced 20 total tackles (18 solo), an interception and four passes defensed over the first three games of the 2024 campaign.
Aug 21, 2024
Past groin issue
Adebo (groin) returned to full-team drills Wednesday, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo missed the last couple of weeks due to a groin injury, but it now appears he's moved past the issue. The Stanford product finished his 2023 campaign with 76 total tackles and 18 passes defended, including four interceptions, across 15 regular-season games. He's expected to remain one of New Orleans' top cornerbacks in 2024.
Aug 4, 2024
Held out Sunday due to groin issue
Adebo did not practice Sunday due to a groin injury, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The severity of the injury isn't certain, though Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports that Adebo tried to practice despite the issue but couldn't give it a go. Adebo tied for the team lead with four interceptions in a breakthrough season last year, and he's slated to reprise his role as the Saints' starting left cornerback in 2024.
Jan 17, 2024
Takes leap in 2023
Adebo finished the 2023 regular season with 76 tackles, two forced fumbles and 18 passes defended, including four interceptions, in 15 games.
ANALYSIS
Adebo helped form one of the most productive secondaries in the NFL this season, logging career highs across the board. The third-year cornerback not only led the Saints in passes defended, but he even finished third in the NFL in passes defended. He also tied safety Tyrann Mathieu for a team high in interceptions. Adebo will look to carry over the momentum of this career-best season into the 2024 campaign, which also be the final season of his four-year, $5.04 million rookie contract.
Dec 24, 2023
Active in defeat
Adebo recorded nine solo tackles (10 total) and a pass defensed in the Saints' 30-22 loss to the Rams on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
The cornerback also played 100 percent of the defensive snaps for the 10th time in the 13 games he's played this season. The third-year pro has 65 tackles, 16 passes defensed, four interceptions, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries in 2023.
Dec 5, 2023
Productive in shootout
Adebo recorded eight tackles (six solo) and a pass defensed in Sunday's 33-28 loss versus the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Adebo tallied seven-plus tackles for the fourth time in his last six games in Week 13, and he tied for the team lead in that category Sunday. He's on pace for the best season of his career, but he's still not on the IDP radar in most formats heading into a Week 14 matchup versus the Panthers.
Nov 14, 2023
Season-high tackles Sunday
Adebo logged nine total tackles (five solo) and two pass deflections in Sunday's 27-19 loss to the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Adebo recorded a season-high nine total tackles in Week 10, tying Demario Davis for New Orleans' leading tackler in Sunday's loss. The third-year cornerback is having the best season of his career, already setting career-highs in interceptions (four), pass deflections (13) and forced fumbles (two) through eight games. Expect Adebo to continue causing problems for opposing offenses as the year goes on.
Nov 6, 2023
Forces three turnovers in win
Adebo registered seven tackles (five solo), two interceptions, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Adebo made his impact felt early when he picked off Tyson Bagent early in the first quarter on a pass intended for Cole Kmet. Adebo then forced a fumble out of DJ Moore early in the third quarter that led to a Saints' field goal before picking off Bagent one more time in the middle of the fourth quarter that helped New Orleans maintain their seven-point lead. Adebo also had the second-most tackles on the team behind Demario Davis (10), and the former is now up to four interceptions on the season, which is already a career high.
Oct 30, 2023
Snags interception in win
Adebo logged three tackles (three solo) and an interception in Sunday's 38-27 win against the Colts.
ANALYSIS
Adebo forced New Orleans' only turnover in Sunday's win and now has two picks in six games this season. The 24-year-old will look to have another productive outing when the Saints host the Bears next week.
Oct 20, 2023
Seven tackles in Thursday's loss
Adebo had seven tackles (five solo) and two passes defensed in Thursday's 31-24 loss to Jacksonville.
ANALYSIS
Adebo led the Saints in tackles as New Orleans controlled time of possession during its second-half comeback bid. The 24-year-old cornerback came into the game with just 10 tackles in four previous appearances this season, but Adebo recorded at least 60 tackles in both of his previous NFL seasons.
Oct 8, 2023
Suiting up Sunday
Adebo (hamstring) is active against the Patriots, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo will return after missing the team's last two games. His ability to play against New England should be a boost for New Orleans' secondary.
Oct 6, 2023
Questionable for Week 5
Adebo (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 5 road contest versus New England, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo hurt his hamstring in practice leading up to a Week 3 contest versus Green Bay and has sat out each of the Saints' past two games. He logged a trio of limited practice sessions this week and appears to have a decent chance of suiting up Sunday. Isaac Yiadom has been getting the majority of snaps at left cornerback in Adebo's stead and would presumably take on the same role Sunday if Adebo is unable to play.
Oct 4, 2023
Limited practice Wednesday
Adebo (hamstring) was a limited participant at the Saints' practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Adebo has missed the last two contests while nursing a hamstring injury he suffered at practice ahead of the team's 18-17 loss to the Packers in Week 3 and he'll look to build off of Wednesday's session as the week progresses. The cornerback, when healthy, operates as one of New Orleans' starters in the secondary.
Sep 29, 2023
Won't play vs. Tampa Bay
Adebo (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game versus the Buccaneers, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo will miss a second consecutive game as he recovers from a hamstring injury he sustained at practice ahead of Week 3 at Green Bay. Isaac Yiadom figures to start again in his absence.
Sep 27, 2023
Still not recovered
Adebo (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo suffered the injury during practice Friday and was unable to play Sunday in the team's loss to the Packers. He'll try to return to practice Thursday in an effort to be ready for Week 4 against the Buccaneers. If he's unable to do so, Isaac Yiadom, who saw a significant uptick in snaps against Green Bay, would likely do so again.
Sep 23, 2023
Ruled out Sunday
Adebo (hamstring) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's contest against the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Adebo sustained a hamstring injury during Friday's practice. His absence is a huge blow for a Saints' secondary that has given up just 160 passing yards per game so far this season. Isaac Yiadom and Alontae Taylor are candidates to see an increased workload Sunday opposite starting cornerback Marshon Lattimore.
Sep 22, 2023
Questionable with hamstring injury
Adebo sustained a hamstring injury at practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Green Bay, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
In what could be a serious blow to New Orleans' secondary, Adebo's status for Week 3 is now up in the air. If he is forced to sit out this weekend, Isaac Yiadom could see an increased workload against his former team.
Sep 11, 2023
Snags first interception since 2021
Adebo recorded two tackles and an interception in Sunday's 16-15 win versus the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Adebo was the beneficiary of one of three New Orleans interceptions in Week 1 on a third-quarter play in which he blanketed five-time Pro Bowler DeAndre Hopkins. He'll continue to start opposite four-time Pro Bowler Marshon Lattimore on a defense that looked awfully good Sunday. The Saints travel to Carolina in Week 2.
Jun 15, 2023
Ready to bounce back
Adebo is ready to return to form after injuries hampered his 2022 campaign, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo dealt with ankle and hamstring injuries during his 2022 campaign, although he did suit up for 13 games. However, the time missed impacted his results on the field, recording six fewer tackles, one less pass defended, and no interceptions after recording three his rookie season. The 2021 third-round selection should start outside opposite Marshon Lattimore in the Saints' secondary this season.
Jan 4, 2023
Ruled out for Week 18
Adebo (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Panthers, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo played all 53 of the Saints' defensive snaps in Week 17, so it's unclear when he suffered the hamstring injury. The severity of the issue is also uncertain, but with the Saints out of playoff contention, the second-year cornerback's season is now over. Across 13 appearances, he totaled 60 tackles and seven pass defenses.
Nov 28, 2022
Defends two passes in loss
Adebo recorded six tackles (two solo) and two passes defended during Sunday's 13-0 defeat versus San Francisco.
ANALYSIS
Adebo logged multiple passes defended for the first time this season, increasing his season total to six over nine games. The second-year cornerback also continued to play every defensive snap, as Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) missed his seventh game in a row despite returning to practice in a limited fashion Week 12. With Bradley Roby undergoing concussion evaluation following this shutout loss, Adebo should once again serve as New Orleans' top cover cornerback if Lattimore remains out against Tampa Bay in Week 13.
Oct 31, 2022
Eight tackles Sunday
Adebo recorded eight tackles (six solo) and one pass defended in Sunday's 24-0 win against the Raiders.
ANALYSIS
Adebo notched eight tackles for the third time in just five games played this season, and he has now defended one pass in each of his last four outings. The 23-year-old was also able to play 100 percent of New Orleans' defensive snaps after missing last week's loss to the Cardinals with a knee injury. Adebo could continue to play a productive role if fellow staring cornerbackMarshon Lattimore (abdomen) remains sidelined for next Monday's game against the Ravens.
Oct 30, 2022
Ready to go Sunday
Adebo (knee) is active Sunday against the Raiders.
ANALYSIS
Adebo missed the team's Week 7 game with the Cardinals, but he's ready to return to the field Sunday. His ability to suit up is a boon for the Saints secondary, as Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) will be inactive.
Oct 26, 2022
Limited Wednesday
Adebo (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Adebo picked up his knee injury during Week 5's loss to Seattle and has been off and on since then. He managed to play through his injury Week 6 but could not for Week 7. Practicing in any sort of capacity is a positive sign for the 23-year-old cornerback.
Oct 20, 2022
Inactive for Thursday
Adebo (knee) is inactive for Thursday's matchup against Arizona.
ANALYSIS
Adebo played through his knee injury during Week 6's loss against the Bengals. After practicing in a limited capacity this past week, Adebo will officially be sidelined Thursday. Rookie second-rounder Alontae Taylor should expect to play a bigger role opposite Bradley Roby as Marshon Lattimore remains out due to an abdomen injury.
Oct 19, 2022
Tagged as questionable
Adebo (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Cardinals.
ANALYSIS
Adebo has been limited in practice with a knee issue since last Wednesday, though he still played 100 percent of New Orleans' defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Bengals. While the starting cornerback remained limited during this week's abbreviated practice schedule, it's likely that he'll again be asked to suit up with Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) already ruled out for Thursday night. Otherwise, expect Bryce Thompson to step into a bigger role opposite Bradley Roby.
Oct 17, 2022
Limited on estimate
Adebo (knee) was a limited participant on the Saints' estimated practice report Monday, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo played through the knee injury during Sunday's loss to the Bengals, after going into the weekend as questionable. Considering he played 100 percent of the snaps in the contest, he probably has a good chance of suiting up Thursday against the Cardinals.
Oct 16, 2022
Cleared for Week 6
Adebo is active for Sunday's contest against the Bengals.
ANALYSIS
Adebo picked up a knee injury during the Saints' Week 5 loss to the Seahawks and was limited in each practice ahead of Week 6, earning him a questionable tag. Nonetheless, the second-year pro is good to go against Cincinnati and will have to step up as the No. 1 cornerback in the absence of Marshon Lattimore (abdomen).
Oct 14, 2022
Listed as questionable
Adebo (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against Cincinnati, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo sustained a knee injury during last week's win over the Seahawks and was a limited participant in each of the Saints' three practice sessions this week. The 23-year-old's status for Sunday's game will be particularly important since Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) has already been ruled out.
Oct 12, 2022
Pops up with injury Wednesday
Adebo was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury.
ANALYSIS
Adebo is dealing with a knee injury after recording eight tackles and one pass defended during Sunday's win over the Seahawks, though the exact nature and severity of this issue are still unclear. The second-year cornerback has played every defensive snap over the past two weeks after being ruled inactive with an ankle injury for the first two games of the season. Adebo has recorded 17 tackles and two passes defended since making his season debut in Week 3, and he'll have two more practices to improve his injury status before this Sunday's matchup against Cincinnati. Otherwise, Bradley Roby and Bryce Thompson may need to step up into bigger roles after starting cornerback Marshon Lattimore sat out practice with an abdomen issue Wednesday.

Paces team with eight tackles
Adebo recorded eight tackles (six solo) and one pass defensed during Sunday's 39-32 win over the Seahawks.
ANALYSIS
Adebo now has back-to-back games with eight stops, after he previously missed the team's first two contests due to an ankle sprain. The second-year cornerback played every defensive snap for New Orleans in Week 5, and he'll likely operate in the same role when the team hosts the Bengals on Sunday.

Adebo (ankle) was a limited participant in Friday's practice session but doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Although Adebo was unable to return to the practice field in a full capacity Friday, he'll be able to play through his high-ankle sprain in Week 4. He played nine defensive snaps last week and logged a solo tackle.

Limited Wednesday
Adebo (ankle) was a limited participant at the Saints' practice Wednesday, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo was once again limited at practice to open the week while he nurses a left high-ankle sprain. That being said, the cornerback played through the injury in Week 3, registering a tackle while playing nine defensive snaps versus the Panthers. He'll likely suit up again Sunday versus the Vikings.

Active for Week 3
Adebo (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
ANALYSIS
While Adebo was practicing in limited capacity this week due to a left high-ankle sprain suffered in late August, he will suit up against Carolina. The cornerback will make his season debut after finishing his 2021 campaign with 66 tackles, eight pass break ups, and three interceptions through 17 games.

Listed questionable for Week 3
Adebo (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's contest against the Panthers, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo returned to practice in a limited fashion this week and has a shot to make his season debut in Week 3. If available, he'll likely reclaim his starting spot across from Marshon Lattimore. As a rookie, the 2021 third-round pick recorded 66 tackles, eight pass defenses and three interceptions over 17 games.

Limited with high ankle sprain
Adebo (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on the Saints' injury report Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Adebo also said Thursday that he has been sidelined for the first two weeks of the season due to a left high ankle sprain suffered in late August, but that he is "feeling better and better every day," Luke Johnson of NOLA.com reports. The 2021 third-round pick also added that he would attempt fully participate during practice Friday in order to test his ankle before Sunday's game against the Panthers. Adebo recorded 66 tackles, eight passes defended and three interceptions over 17 contests as a rookie, and he will step back in as New Orleans' starting cornerback opposite Marshon Lattimore when healthy this season.

Returns to practice Wednesday
Adebo (ankle) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Adebo didn't practice at all last week before being ruled out for a second straight game. However, he's returned to practice ahead of Week 3 and may have a shot at making his season debut against the Panthers on Sunday.
Sep 16, 2022
Ruled out for Week 2
Adebo (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Buccaneers, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo didn't practice at all this week, so it's not surprising to see him ruled out for a second straight game. In his absence, Bradley Roby figures to draw another start opposite of Marshon Lattimore in the Saints secondary.
Sep 14, 2022
Doesn't practice Wednesday
Adebo (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Adebo sprained his ankle at the beginning of training camp and suited up for the exhibition opener before being sidelined for the final two preseason games. He was ruled out for regular-season opener after not practicing at all last week and appears to be trending in the same direction ahead of Week 2. Bradley Roby started opposite of Marshon Lattimore in Week 1 and would likely do so again Sunday if Adebo is eventually ruled out.

Won't play Sunday
Adebo (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's season opener against the Jets, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo sprained his ankle during a practice at the beginning of training camp and suited up for the exhibition opener before being sidelined for the remainder of the preseason. The second-year cornerback didn't practice at all leading up to Week 1, so it's not surprising to see him ruled out. In his absence, Bradley Roby will likely start opposite of Marshon Lattimore on Sunday.

Managing left ankle sprain
Adebo said Wednesday that he's dealing with a sprained left ankle, Terrin Waack of NOLA.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Adebo sustained his injury during practice last Wednesday and didn't suit up during Friday's preseason finale against the Chargers. He hasn't yet practiced this week but said Wednesday that he expects to play in the Saints' regular-season opener against Atlanta on Sept. 11. Adebo will presumably be monitored over the next week and a half, but his ankle issue doesn't sound like a significant concern.
Oct 14, 2021
Records another INT
Adebo had four tackles (all solo), one pass breakup and one interception during New Orleans' win over Washington in Week 5.
ANALYSIS
Adebo only played 75 percent of defensive snaps versus Washington, his lowest mark of the season, but that didn't prevent him from notching the second interception of his career. After the Saints enjoy a Week 6 bye, Adebo will get another chance to make an impact versus Seattle on Oct. 25.
