Ugo Amadi - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Leading tackler Week 13 Amadi recorded nine tackles (eight solo) and one pass defended during Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams.

Impact Amadi tallied at least eight tackles for the third game in a row, finishing with the Saints' team-high in this category. The 5-foot-9 defensive back has taken on an increased role since Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) was traded to Washington on Nov. 5. Amadi has also played at least 90 percent of offensive snaps in each game since taking over as New Orleans' top nickelback. He should remain productive so long as he remains in this role moving forward.

Continues to produce Amadi recorded nine total tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 35-14 win over the Browns.

Impact Amadi has taken full advantage of his increased opportunities since Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) was traded to the Commanders on Nov. 5, tallying 18 total tackles, including three tackles for loss, across New Orleans' last two games. He appears to have secured the Saints' starting slot corner position and is expected to line up alongside Alontae Taylor and Kool-Aid McKinstry in the secondary as the season progresses.

Capitalizes on opportunity Sunday Amadi logged nine tackles (all solo), including three for loss, in Sunday's 20-17 Week 10 win against Atlanta.

Impact With Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) traded to Washington last Tuesday, Amadi logged 100 percent of New Orleans' defensive snaps for the first time this season. He played well, finishing with a season-high nine stops, including three tackles for loss. Amadi also made a huge play on the final snap of the game, making a nice tackle of Ray-Ray McCloud to keep the wideout in bounds and force the clock to expire to ensure a narrow Saints victory.

Healthy scratch Amadi (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against Commanders, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact Amadi was forced to miss the Titans' last two games with an ankle injury. He returned to a full practice Wednesday and didn't carry an injury tag, so it appears that coach Mike Vrabel has decided to lean on Andrew Adams as the backup free safety against the Commanders.

Ready to return Amadi (ankle) was a full participant in practice Wednesday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Amadi has missed each of the last two games after suffering the injury in Week 2's loss to the Bills. After logging a full practice, he should be good to go Sunday against the Commanders.

Won't play at Indianapolis Amadi (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 4, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact Amadi will sit out for a second consecutive week with an ankle injury he presumably sustained Week 2 at Buffalo. It's unclear when he'll be able to return, and for now, Josh Kalu could be in line to start alongside Kevin Byard at safety Sunday with Amani Hooker (concussion) also having been ruled out.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Week 3 Amadi (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Raiders, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Amadi played 38 defensive snaps and recorded five tackles during the season opener, but he saw a substantially smaller role during Monday's blowout loss to the Bills. It's unclear when he picked up the injury, but Amadi has been sidelined for every practice this week. In his absence, Lonnie Johnson could see more snaps as a nickel back.

Dealt to Eagles Seattle traded Amadi to Philadelphia on Monday in exchange for J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The Seahawks apparently had planned to simply cut Amadi before the trade for Arcega-Whiteside materialized. He has registered more than 50 tackles each of the past two seasons, so he'll provide some welcome depth in the defensive backfield and serve as a seasoned special-teams contributor for the Eagles.
