Davante Adams News

Davante Adams Expected to Stay With Rams

Monday, March 30, 3:43 PM

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that the Rams explored trading veteran wide receiver Davante Adams this offseason, but ultimately, he's expected to remain with the team for a second year doing into the 2026 season, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. The Rams also considered trading for Philadelphia Eagles receiver A.J. Brown, which would have pushed Adams out of L.A. "We are glad he's a Ram," McVay said. The Rams were transparent with Adams through the process. The 33-year-old six-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro pass-catcher took the Rams' offense to a new level in his first year with the team in 2025, catching 60 of his 114 targets for 789 yards and a league-high 14 touchdowns in 14 regular-season starts. It was the third time in his career that he's led the league in TD receptions. Puka Nacua is still the alpha receiver in the Rams' offense, but Adams will continue to get his as a touchdown-dependent WR2 with plenty of injury risk in L.A.'s high-octane and high-scoring offense.

Can Kenneth Gainwell Maintain PPR Prowess in New Digs in Tampa?

Thursday, March 26, 6:29 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers new running back Kenneth Gainwell broke out in 2025 in his fifth year in the NFL with the Pittsburgh Steelers, carrying the ball 114 times for 537 yards (4.7 yards per carry) and five rushing touchdowns. But where he made his mark was in the short passing game for the Steelers, catching 73 passes (fourth-most among RBs) on 85 targets for 486 yards (fifth-most among RBs) and three additional touchdowns in 17 regular-season games. The 27-year-old signed a two-year, $14 million contract with the Buccaneers in free agency and will essentially replace Rachaad White, who is now in Washington, as the No. 2 back in Tampa behind early-down RB Bucky Irving. He's an ideal complement to Irving in the backfield, but Irving should continue to catch his fair share of passes, too, if he remains healthy. Gainwell should have a solid PPR floor in his new home as the team's pass-catching back, but fantasy managers should prepare for regression from what could very easily end up being his career year in 2025.
