Adams brought in five of seven targets for 51 yards and two touchdowns in the Rams' 37-34 overtime loss to the Bills on Monday night.
Matthew Stafford showered unprecedented attention on Puka Nacua in the form of 24 targets, but Adams still put together a highly useful fantasy performance via his pair of touchdown grabs. Adams went in from four and five yards out in the second and fourth quarters, respectively. Adams' catch and receiving yardage totals were all his third highest of the campaign, and the veteran wideout will next take aim at the Cardinals defense in a Week 6 divisional home matchup on Sunday.
Adams will serve as the Rams' WR2 against the Eagles on Sunday after Puka Nacua (hip) was cleared to play, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
After a quiet Week 1 against the 49ers in Australia, Adams has put together a 15-332-2 line on 23 targets over the Rams' last two games in the absence of Nacua. The latter does not carry an injury designation for Week 4, though Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com relays that the Rams are still figuring out what kind of snap count that Nacua will operate under in his return. Given that, Adams still figures to be a top target for QB Matthew Stafford in the passing game, particularly in the red zone, where Adams has thrived for his entire NFL career.
Everyone sharing the ball with Davante, most valuable first.
Above the line the plan was to throw; below it, to run.
Adams caught seven of 13 targets for 137 yards in Sunday's 30-26 loss to the Broncos.
Adams continued to thrive as Matthew Stafford's top target in the absence of Puka Nacua (hip). During Nacua's two-game absence, Adams has compiled 15 catches for a whopping 332 yards and two touchdowns. Adams led the NFL with 14 touchdown receptions during the 2025 regular season and is showing no signs of slowing down at age 33 early in the 2026 campaign. He is poised to maintain a prominent role in Week 4 against the Eagles, though the Rams are optimistic that Nacua could be cleared to return by then.
Adams secured eight of 10 targets for 195 yards and two touchdowns in the Rams' 28-6 win over the Giants on Monday night.
With Puka Nacua (hip) inactive, Adams entered the contest projected for an elevated workload, but the veteran wideout exceeded expectations in a spectacular primetime showing. Adams set the tone for a dominant performance early via a 31-yard touchdown reception over the middle late in the first quarter. He'd go on to add an 11-yard scoring grab just past the midway point of the third quarter, and Adams' reception, receiving yardage and target totals all comfortably paced the Rams on the night. The breakout effort was in stark contrast to Adams' quiet three-catch Week 1 tally, but he draws a tough Week 3 assignment on the road against the Broncos on Sunday night, one where he could garner plenty of Patrick Surtain's attention if Nacua remains sidelined.
Adams secured three of six targets for 26 yards during the Rams' 27-7 Week 1 loss to the 49ers in Melbourne, Australia.
The veteran receiver's final line underscores the kind of game it was for the Rams' air attack, which netted only 168 yards overall. Adams' numbers, modest as they were, still enabled him to tie for second in receptions while also checking in as the runner-up in both receiving yards and targets for Los Angeles. The only game during Adams' debut campaign in L.A. last year in which he generated a lower stat line was a Week 11 win over the Seahawks, when his only catch went for a one-yard touchdown, and he should have a chance to put together a more voluminous line during a Week 2 home matchup against the Giants on Monday night, Sept. 21.

Adams is expected to be back with the Rams in 2026, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
The veteran wide receiver signed a two-year contract with Los Angeles before last season, but it was structured in such a way that the team would have an easy out this offseason if Adams hadn't proven to be a good fit. Instead, he posted a 60-789-14 line over 14 regular-season games while shining as a red-zone target for Matthew Stafford, adding one more score in the NFC Championship Game loss to the Seahawks. It's possible the Rams will look to re-negotiate Adams' deal and reduce his cap hit, however, as the team attempts to create space for a Puka Nacua extension.
