The Los Angeles Rams have a key game coming up against the Seahawks, and Puka Nacua may be called on to do a little extra. That’s because Davante Adams is unlikely to play in the Thursday Night Football showdown amid an injury update.
Adams has a hamstring injury, according to a post on X by Ian Rapoport.
“#Rams WR Davante Adams, who left Sunday’s game with a hamstring injury, is considered week-to-week, sources say. That almost certainly knock[s] him out for TNF, but it is simply an aggravation of what he was previously dealing with, not a new injury.”
Adams has been enjoying one of the best seasons in his career. He has 14 touchdowns, tying the second-best total of his career and nearing his career-high mark of 18, set in 2020 with the Packers.
The Rams are going to give Adams more opportunities to see if he can somehow make a go of it against the Seahawks, according to sports.mynorthwest.com.
“(Adams) was optimistic, talking to him,” McVay said. “He knows his body really well. We’ll see what that means. I can’t imagine that’s good for Thursday with just the short amount of time, but I certainly wouldn’t rule him out quite yet. But it didn’t look good.”
Quarterback Matthew Stafford said Adams is a critical part of the Rams’ offense.
“A huge part of our offense, a guy that’s put it in the end zone a bunch for us this year,” Stafford said. “That’ll be a tough one. I don’t know the extent of it. Didn’t look like it was a good one. Feel so tough for him. He’s been a warrior for us all year, really.”
The Rams and Seahawks both enter the game with records of 11-3. The winner will have the inside track to the No. 1 seed for the NFC playoffs. And if the Seahawks pull off a win on their home field on Sunday, that makes home-field advantage for the playoffs look even stronger.
