Should I Start Davante Adams?

Saturday, September 26, 6:23 AM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams put up an otherworldly performance in Week 2, and he'll look to keep that momentum going into Week 3 against the Denver Broncos. Adams was Matthew Stafford's No. 1 target last week with Puka Nacua (hip) sidelined, and it resulted in an elite stat line that included eight catches, 195 yards, and two touchdowns against the Giants. The good news for Adams is that he'll likely lead the receiving corps again in Week 3, as Nacua is listed as doubtful. The bad news is that this week's matchup is much tougher, as Patrick Surtain II and the Broncos have allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to wide receivers in 2026. Last week's performance has a low probability of happening again, and a tougher matchup is certainly on tap. Nevertheless, as long as Adams is atop the depth chart, he's a must-start WR1 in fantasy football. As it stands, he ranks #12 among wide receivers in RotoBaller's Week 3 fantasy football rankings.
