RISING | Tyler Adams: The Grind

Since he was 12, Tyler Adams has made the grinding 70-mile drive between his home in Wappingers Falls, N.Y. and the New York Red Bulls practice facility. It's a commute that has defined the work ethic Adams has become known for with the Red Bulls and spurred him to an emerging role with the U.S. Men's National Team.

[@tPowelly]

“It’s a grind but I don’t mind” lowkey dropping bars too😂🔥.

[@mikololavina1458]

By 2026, all these guys will be in their prime. Hope they all develop and gel together. Been a fan of US football/soccer since the 2009 Confed Cup!

[@ACMJ-kb5er]

We have a high chance in 2026 especially since we'll be at home which is an advantage. Finals here we come

[@oyaml1211]

Christian Pulisic - 19 years Weston McKinnie - 19 years Tim Weah - 18 years Tyler Adams -19 years Josh Sargent - 18 years And all in the USMNT team as starters! The future looks very bright! Just hope Sebastian Soto (17 years ) goes to Germany this year too and he will soon be part of the USMNT.

[@mercnsiku15]

Mario L is sebastian soto any good tell me more info about him as I have never heard of him

[@oyaml1211]

Mercidi Nsiku He just scored 2 goals with the US Youth U20 in a friendly and only played 45 minutes. He was also one of the best goal scorer, or the one with the most goals, if I remember correctly, in the U19 DA season. Highly regarded upcoming striker, just what the USMNNT needs more of. Hopefully he continues to do better and does make it in Europe. And he is still 17!

[@mrkickass4195]

Lol only Pulisic and perhaps Adams.. the rest are all a bunch of u proven bench warmers

[@tylercroffin7163]

zyen jones too

[@Dshowtime_0]

They all play in Europe

[@anasshahid224]

Tyler Adams is the man, such skilled player, humble, respectful, he’s the perfect captain 🇺🇸🙌

[@omarchavez2065]

at 2:07 demonstrates why we should not discourage multi-sport participation. You pick up skills and elevate your drive and work ethic when playing multiple sports, even if its on a lower tier level.

[@rachelmcadamslover]

eh, he could have been even a better soccer player if instead of basketball he would have been playing traveling soccer or something

[@omarchavez2065]

Playing other sports makes you a better footballer. (heck, even Christian Pulisic played it growing up) You pick up a lot of skills and learn other ideas that apply to the pitch. Pressing originates from ice hockey. Set piece movements are similar to pick and rolls in basketball. As for being a better "soccer player," you can't ask for more when you're in the Red Bull academy by the time you're 10, in the 1st team by 16/17, and now off to the Bundesliga.

[@steviesoprano]

Yep. Playing multiple sports, any one; American football, basketball, baseball, soccer, tennis will help you in any sport you truly want to have as your main focus. You learn a lot.

[@femioki3861]

Remember watching this when it came out thinking this boy is so assured. Here he is now, shining brightly at a world cup stage! respect from 🇳🇬

[@BoostFutbol]

Dang, love this kid's work ethic!

[@BenjHouston]

This dude is fun to watch. Can’t wait to watch him play for many years.

[@bielsaball8443]

Becoming fan favourite at Leeds.. top player 👏🏽

[@bubby87697]

Wow you just score the winning goal !!! Congratulations on getting in the semis of the champions league

[@nednerb2010]

Should have made one of these for Keaton Parks of Benfica

[@coryf6460]

I was most impressed by him during those friendlies. The dude is silky smooth

[@nahyoudontsay7537]

Time to make the move to Germany

[@nehemiahobongono8496]

way of the intercepting fist hes going at the end of this mls season

[@nahyoudontsay7537]

Supreme Jadon since Jesse Marsh just left he should feel comfortable with the move since they both will be at the same Club.

[@kugelschotchen1867]

way of the intercepting fist it’s Marsch but you‘re right

[@adamg_23]

Well well well

[@nisl9039]

Welcome to Germany i guess.

[@chambersheros7096]

The whole world tryna know how this dude came out great. Tyler Johnson is a show stopper, very fearless to dribble n shoot. Ball control n handler r on point.

[@nwannaachilihu4506]

Tyler Adams is one of a kind player that make the crowd stand up in a stadium especially when his on the move with the ball

[@oscielitolentinocastro5849]

Considero que en un par de años estos jugadores habrán alcanzado un gran nivel y la selección nos puede llevar la delantera en las eliminatorias

[@mpumimore6432]

Amazing, thanks for being and inspiration ❤

[@SupeRey49]

Isn't he going to RB Leipzig? There was a rumor his coach was going to take him along

[@oyaml1211]

Captain Cosmo Yes, he is going but not to Leipzig. He is going to RB Salzburg by the end of the MLS season.

[@oyaml1211]

Joe Wells www.socceramerica.com/publications/article/77992/report-tyler-adams-could-be-headed-to-rb-leipzig.html Read last part.

[@et5740]

Mario L On loan not permanent

[@thomas3012]

why not. if he stays in the MLS he wont fulfil his potential the MLS isnt good enough.

[@monsiursnowman66]

Now he's playing in the best league on the planet 💛💙 welcome to Leeds

[@goxzalo2692]

you need hella gas money to make that trip almost everyday for 7 years

[@thekidFL6]

Goxzalo it’s sacricifices

[@robertmeinhold3402]

Also a lot of the reason youth development is so bad in the states. It's waaaaaaay to expensive to play at for an elite youth team, not accessible to everyone. At least he and his family have the opportunity to make that sacrifice.

[@kenbox9355]

robert meinhold also cause here in the us for any sport they can’t get paid till their 18 which imo is stupid for us teams they should be able to get paid at like 10 or just no age

[@Dshowtime_0]

robert meinhold mls youth academy’s are free

[@ArpLaszlo]

Love his work ethic & motor, he could have really helped us during the hex. I'd have taken my chances with him or McKennie instead of Backpass Bradley. Look forward to seeing him & McKennie develop a nice partnership.

[@mrkickass4195]

Americans truly dont understand this sport wow

[@ArpLaszlo]

Go for it man - tell me what I don't understand. Explain to me why Michael Bradley was a better option than Adams or McKennie.

[@la_gallada_ruiz9818]

Are great USMNT youngsters 👍

[@matthewforbes2969]

845 represent 🙏✊

[@nwannaachilihu4506]

He fearless while with the ball against the opponent period n that's why he's Tyler Adams. He said he's bringing back world cup to United States someday n he meant it like everyone said

[@joshsantiago1277]

2022 USMNT World Cup Captain 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@frankgilliland]

[@LinhLolly]

He should move to RB Leipzig! He has the potential and he better play in Europe!

[@oyaml1211]

Ling DaSweetPie He is going to RB Salzburg by the end of the MLS season.

[@mrkickass4195]

[@fe-jo]

6:30 nice dive

[@mrkickass4195]

Shhh .. youll trigger these clueless amerikans

[@asharpone111]

Needs to tighten up his ball control -- but love this kid. Need to get him to Europe.

[@mrkickass4195]

Adams is a poor man's Davies lol

[@roaches23]

Now his home is Leeds

[@ezrixthegreat7402]

That’s sun from playing turning him darker than his parents

[@AR-io8fv]

Bro you need to go to Europe ASAP

[@chambersheros7096]

Just a real shadow of demsey

[@kidcudi908]

This kid is young but he's good enough to play In Europe with a good club

[@nwannaachilihu4506]

Tyler Adams was born a soccer all star without a star as we all know

[@Brooklyn-jo3or]

He’s on Grindr?

[@giodhuha6771]

Who's here after he scored against Atletico Madrid?

[@kevinfield5930]

Holy cow it's the guy from lego

[@tupperd]

Did he have to pay crazy amounts for the academy??

[@TeamDazu]

Bryan Perez you don’t pay to play on Red Bull’s academy

[@ethankaram683]

Bryan Perez for every MLS academy but DC united you don’t need to pay

[@AndreVideos45628]

at dynamo you have to pay

[@TexasCoachMike]

The Houston Dynamo Academy is free from U14 and older

[@joaquingonzalez834]

guys he scores a goal against atleti, and it was a deflection, can u believe it???

[@nwannaachilihu4506]

Folks never stop screaming while he had the ball n his gone

[@juventuswin3262]

looking for Soccer player agent who’s from United States . Can you help me please ☺️

[@thomas3012]

if he wants to improve he must move to Europe and sign for a club in one of the top leagues so he can progress.

[@fisterhr]

Time to go to Europe kid...and stay there.

[@mrtey7283]

I dont get it, is he adopted?

[@Alessandro_Berlusc]

He's mixed lol

[@Kevin.lee.01]

If the USMNT wants to ever be good their up and coming players like Adams needs to leave the shitty MLS and go overseas they don’t develop anyone in the MLS follow what Weah, Sargent, and Pulisic are doing (PLAYING IN EUROPE)

[@fridavargas9771]

Mhhhmmm... Some USWNT videos are missing... Oh wait you guys don't ever post any 🤷

[@goldenfoxa1810]

Frida Vargas who cares about women soccer

[@fridavargas9771]

Uhm what?

[@goldenfoxa1810]

Frida Vargas I'm sorry but women soccer isn't that famous that's why they don't have videos on it
