Mike Adams (concussion) won't play in Thursday's matchup against the Colts.Adams was active for Week 11's loss to the Ravens but didn't play after suffering a concussion during warmups.

Justin Reid (concussion) is also ruled out, so Tashaun Gipson (back) -- he's listed as questionable -- A.J. Moore and Jahleel Addae will round out the team's safety corps.

Adams, who turned 38 years old in March, provides a veteran presence to complement safeties Justin Reid and Tashaun Gipson.

It's unclear how much he'll play for the Texans, but it looks like he could fill in as a nickel safety.

Panthers' Mike Adams: Won't stay with Panthers
Mike Adams will not re-sign with the Carolina Panthers, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.Adams was a 16-game starter the past two seasons in Carolina, averaging 72 tackles, eight passes defensed and 2.5 interceptions, though he struggled in coverage during the 2018 campaign. The Panthers hope to get younger and faster on defense, albeit without an obvious replacement on the roster to start alongside Eric Reid at safety. The team may look to the draft to address its deficiency, while Adams will hit the open market in mid-March shortly before he celebrates his 38th birthday. He has already announced his intention to continue playing football for at least one more season.
