Why signing Davante Adams makes sense for Rams
Sean McVay heavily recruited former Green Bay Packers, Las Vegas Raiders, and New York Jets receiver Davante Adams over the weekend before the Los Angeles Rams inked the veteran to a reported two-year, $46M deal. Adams will join Puka Nacua, Tutu Atwell, and Jordan Whittington at receiver in LA.
It’s not abnormal for reported salary numbers to differ from reality, and that’s again the case between Adams and the Rams. While LA could keep him around for 2026 at a $30M cap hit, it is reasonably possible to move on after one season with $12M in dead cap and $18M in savings. That’s good news if you are worried that Adams might go the way of former Rams receiver Allen Robinson.
