Davante Adams Carries Upside Into Extremely Favorable Matchup

Sunday, January 18, 9:37 AM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams returned from a three-game injury absence last weekend, and he immediately made an impact with five catches for 72 yards on 13 targets and a 72% snap share. Adams continued to carve out a sizable role alongside superstar Puka Nacua. With that being said, the veteran receiver was held without a touchdown for his third consecutive game -- his longest streak without a trip to the end zone since the first half of the 2024 season. Adams is a major touchdown threat, as evidenced by his 14 touchdowns through the first 12 games of the 2025 regular season. As a result, we wouldn't be surprised to see him get back on the board with a score against the Bears on Sunday. After all, this matchup is incredibly enticing and should work in Adams' favor. The Bears have allowed the third-most touchdowns and the third-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers in 2025. Adams ranks as the overall WR3 in RotoBaller's Divisional Round fantasy rankings, putting him behind only Nacua and Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who played on Saturday evening.

Saints to Discuss Extension for Chris Olave This Offseason

Wednesday, January 7, 1:15 PM

New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis said the team will discuss a contract extension for wide receiver Chris Olave this offseason, according to Erin Summers of NFL Network. "Chris is obviously an important player to us and had a really good season... had a couple of conversations with his agent, that will be part of this offseason," Loomis said. Olave didn't play in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Atlanta Falcons due to a blood clot in his lung, but the 25-year-old former first-rounder should be ready to roll for the start of next season as the Saints' clear WR1. Despite missing the last game of the year, Olave was money for fantasy managers in 2025, finishing as the WR6 in half-PPR scoring with 100 catches (156 targets) for 1,163 yards, and nine touchdowns in 16 games. It was a career year for Olave, and he'll be an early-round WR1 target in 2026 fantasy drafts, especially with rookie quarterback Tyler Shough showing plenty of promise in his first season.
