In a surprising move, Davante Adams is set to join the Los Angeles Rams. The acquisition was announced by the Rams on Sunday, with reports from NFL Network indicating that Adams will sign a two-year, $46 million deal with $26 million guaranteed.
Adams, a six-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro receiver, had a standout season last year despite being traded mid-season from the Raiders to the Jets. At 32 years old, he continued to be a top performer, recording 85 catches for 1,063 yards and eight touchdowns in just 14 games.
After the Jets released Adams due to salary cap constraints, he now finds himself in a new home with the Rams. He will be catching passes from quarterback Matthew Stafford, forming a strong offensive lineup alongside rising star Puka Nacua.
With the potential departure of Cooper Kupp, Adams is expected to take on the role of the veteran receiver for the Rams. This partnership with Nacua and the existing offensive talent, including Pro Bowl running back Kyren Williams and veteran tight end Tyler Higbee, promises to make the Rams a force to reckon with in the upcoming season. Stafford, who recently restructured his contract to remain with the team, will have a dynamic set of weapons at his disposal as the Rams aim for continued success.
