Chargers select Baylor safety JT Woods in third round

The Los Angeles Chargers addressed their need for depth in the secondary during the second day of the NFL draft, selecting Baylor safety JT Woods in the third round

APRIL 30, 2022 • Associated Press

Emerges as quality safety Adderley finished the 2021 season with 99 tackles (69 solo), five passes defended, one forced fumble and a half of a sack.

Impact Adderley was forced into the starting free safety role last season after another season-ending injury to Derwin James, but it was clear early in the 2021 campaign the extra playing time gave the third-year safety a new sort of confidence in his role this time alongside the aforementioned Pro Bowl safety. There was still plenty of coverage errors attributed to Adderley, and the third-year safety will never be known as a hard hitter, but the 2019 second-round pick certainly doesn't appear to be a negative player at this juncture of his career. Expect more growth and another season playing alongside James to possibly boost his value in IDP formats.

Moves off COVID-19 list Adderley was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday and will be eligible to play Sunday against the Broncos.

Impact The new rules outlined by the NFL and the NFL Players Association couldn't have come at a better time for the unvaccinated Adderley, who is now eligible to play after five days in isolation. The second-year safety is in the midst of a breakout season with career highs already in tackles and pass breakups.

Could play Week 17 after all Adderley (illness), who was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 Monday, will be eligible to play Sunday against the Broncos if he's asymptomatic or showing improvement in his recovery f...

Impact As an unvaccinated player who tested positive for the virus, Adderley was expected to face a 10-day quarantine, but that timeline was cut in half Tuesday, when the NFL and NFL Players Association reached an agreement to set isolation time at five days for all players who test positive for COVID-19, regardless of vaccination status. Though Adderley looks like he'll still remain away from the Chargers through at least Friday, he should be ready to go Sunday so long as his symptoms have resolved while he's in isolation. The third-year safety has recorded 81 tackles, five pass breakups, a fumble recovery and a half sack through 13 games this season.

Chargers' defensive flaws on display with short-handed unit

Out Week 17 Adderley (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday and won't play Sunday against the Broncos, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Impact The implication of being ruled out straightaway is that Adderley is unvaccinated and tested positive for the virus, which triggers a 10-day quarantine. The Chargers now have six members of the secondary on the COVID list, potentially leaving the unit shorthanded for Week 17.

Notches seven tackles Sunday Adderley produced seven tackles (five solo), one pass deflection and one fumble recovery during Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Patriots.

Impact After a three-tackle performance during the season opener, Adderley has recorded 39 tackles over his last five contests. The 24-year-old will likely remain a solid IDP option in deeper leagues due to his tackling production, but his potential is limited, as his fumble recovery in Week 8 is his only turnover of the season.

Full participant Wednesday Adderley (hip) was listed as a full participant for the Chargers' practice Wednesday.

Impact Adderley was unable to play for the Chargers in Week 6 against the Ravens after he suffered a hip injury in practice. The safety has reportedly gotten closer to being able to return coming out of the team's Week 7 bye. Expect Adderley to be able to suit up for Week 8 against the Patriots, barring any setbacks.
